The mosque in Gümüş, a small town in the Amasya region, attracts attention because of the problem of identifying its patron. The Turkish inscription written in the Latin Alphabet “Yörgüç Rüstem Paşa Camisi 1426” on the plate on the portal, consubstantiating Yörgüç Paşa and Rüstem Paşa, identifies a historical figure who never existed as the patron of the building. This consubstantiation refers to two important actors in the construction process of the mosque: Yörgüç Paşa (d. 1442), the vizier of Murad II and Rüstem Paşa (d. 1561), the vizier of Süleyman I. This study does not aim to reveal whether Yörgüç Paşa or Rüstem Paşa was the true patron who commissioned the building, rather it aims to examine the building in detail to date its parts.
