A good example of the city's history and interesting past can be seen in the main square, where the Gazi Kasim Mosque still stands, and, although consecrated as a church following the retreat of the Ottoman Turks centuries ago, the crescent moon of Islam is still visible on the cupola, surmounted by a cross. Indeed, Pécs is the richest town in Hungary in terms of Turkish architecture, with the ruins of Memi Pasa's Baths and the mausoleum of miracle worker Idris Baba, just two other notable remains. The [[Yakovalı Hasan Paşa Mosque]], dating from the mid-1600s, still functions as an active mosque today. It is open to the public except during [[Friday prayers|Friday services]] from 2.30 to 3.30 pm.
