DOĞANHİSAR
The foundation of Doğanhisar dates back to the Roman-Byzantine period. We understand this from the historical artifacts and inscriptions found in various excavations. Most of the inscribed stones, statues and sarcophagi found so far are exhibited in Konya and Akşehir Archeology Museums, and many of them are exhibited in open spaces in Doğanhisar.
We know from the records that Doğanhisar was a town of Doğanhisar (District) connected to Beyşehir Liva (Province) during the Anatolian Seljuk State. During the Ottoman period, it was in the state of Nahiye (Bucak) connected to Akşehir. Municipal Organization was established in 1912 and became a district in 1957.
DOĞANHİSAR TEST
Jugs are a healthy container with the ability to keep water cold. Jugs remain relatively porous as they are cooked at low temperatures. They sweat by gently expelling the water inside them through their pores. This sweating event regulates the temperature by evaporation, just like in humans, and provides cooling. The water coming out of the porous surface of the jug made of permeable soil, which has absorbent properties, evaporates when it encounters the hot air outside. During evaporation, the water particles also take the heat from the test surface and lower the temperature of the test.
Due to the decrease in heat exchange between the water in it and the jug, the water inside the jug does not heat up either. As long as this continues and the water leaking out of the jug is spent on evaporation, the outside environment is prevented from heating the jug. Undoubtedly, the water in the jug decreases a little during this period. These characteristics of the jugs are best seen in regions such as Central Anatolia, where the continental climate is dominant, dry and the nights are cool. The water, which is cooled by the falling air temperature at night, evaporates more easily due to the low humidity of the air that warms up in the morning and keeps the water in the jug cool throughout the day.
HISTORICAL AND TOURISTIC PLACES
ULU MOSQUE
The construction date of Doğanhisar Ulu Mosque was determined as 1548 BC, as can be understood from the inscription above the door. The wooden staircase on the left of the entrance leads to the mahfil floor. A second door is visible on the right outer wall. The wooden altar and pulpit are also remarkable. There is a minaret in the western wall corner with a mixed masonry of stone and brick. The outer walls of the entrance and qibla façade, which are seen to be built with smooth cut stones at the bottom, with one row of stones at the top and three or four rows of bricks, and that the other two facades are made of rubble, are 103-105 cm thick. They are supported by thick wooden beams in places. The interior beaming system is also felt from the outside. All load-bearing walls were repaired with suitable materials and joint repairs were completed with original mortars. When you enter the interior, important embroidery and illumination examples can be seen on the upper cover woods in front of the mihrab and on the wooden column faces supporting this ceiling, on the other ceiling carrier beam faces and column capitals. It has the same colors and patterns as the embroidery and illumination works seen in the İstanbul Rüstem Paşa Mosque, Topkapı Kara Ahmet Paşa Mosque and Takkeci İbrahim Ağa Mosques. Examples of red colors and gold leaf embroidery can be felt in the column combinations. It can be thought that the mihrab and pulpit should also have ornamental patterns seen on the ceiling and other wooden surfaces. However, according to the information obtained, it is seen that these elements were painted with oil paint in previous years and there are no examples left.
