The small quarter mosque of Bogbonly was founded in the early 19th century. Columns from an earlier period were used in the construction of the mosque. For example, wooden columns decorated with carvings belong to the 14th century, since their pattern corresponds to this period. The trunk of each of them is decorated with ornamental belts alternating with inscriptions.
