After the collapse of Anatelian Seljuk State twentydynasties appeared. A~ong these Anatelian dynasties CandaroğullarıDynasty was one of the strongest politicalinstitutions. The Dynasty reigned between 1291 and 1461in the surro.undings of Kastamonu, Sinop and Çankırı. CandaroğullarıDynasty wanted to prove its existence, starteda period of reconstruction and brought novelties tothe Turkish Art. Many constructions such as mosque, madrasah,primary school, tomb, inn and hammam have survivedfrom their period up to now.Kastamonu İbni Neccar Mosque has a distingished placein Turkish Architecture. Single doomed prayer room,triple doomed portice place and single minaret mosque shapehad been used till the last period of Ottoman Empire.It is interesting that 17 mosque out ot 21 which have remainedup to now have wooden ceiling. The reason why theconstruction of this type of mosque was comman is possiblythat Southeast had vast wooden area. It can also be explainedby the economical possibilities of the dynasty.Amongthe mosque with wooden ceiling the most important one isKasaba Köyü Mahmut Bey Mosque. With its ceiling constructionand adamation with wood,plaster and quill style itis a masterpiece. It is considered as unique in Turkishart.Two madrasahs which have remained us from Candaroğullarılet Anatelian tradation continue with their `U` shapeand with the coverage of Ottoman rooms with barral vault.Kastamonu İsmail Bey Primary School and Sinop EmirŞehabeddin Fountain have a very special charecteristic;they are the-only constructions of their own type whichhave been able to survive.The interior part of the İsfendiyaroğulları Tombwhich consist of two voluma was covered with doom andstar vault. Tomb with two sections and which has such coverage system is not fo und in Turldsh archi tecture. KastamonuAtabey To:nb has a grea t importance because it isthe last example of e;van modeled tomb known in Anatolia.The upper surface of all sections of Hanönü İsmail Beyİnn was covered with star vault. For this respect it isunique.In the construction of Candaroğulları niches (mihrab)mostly plaster and marble material was used, Theniches of 13 mosques reınained up to now are plaster. Duringthe period of dynasties the n~mber of plaster nichesincreased. Among the Anatelian Dynasties, the firstmarble niche is seen in Candaroğulları Sinop Fetih BabaMasjid. With the particular consideration of tecnic andadornation, Sinop Alaaddin Mosque's marble mihrab whichis formed from one within anather two niche is a uniquesample of Turkish art. In addition, the marble door ofthe marble minber of Sinop Alaaddin Mosque with its vegetaladornation with its double winged cannot be seen inany other marble minber.In general, Cw`daroğulları constructed buildings underthe influence of ?~atolia Seljuk and Ottoman architecture.In some of these constructions of this Dynasty,stone, marble, plaster and adamation with quill styleare used. It is seen that in these adornations, AnatoliaSeljıkian style of adornation has been best reflected.
