The original Horta Jame mosque was built in 1886 with money donated by the mother of the famous public figure Adzharia Aslan-beg Khimshiashvili. It was called "Orta Jame", as it was located between the mosques of Azizejame and Ahmed Pashajame ("orta" in Turkish means "average").
The rectangular building with two floors is decorated in a facade that faces a small street, and on the side of it is a small landscaped square. The interior of the mosque was amazingly painted by talented brothers from Lazistan.
In 1932, the mosque was closed, but again began to operate in 1946. In the 1990s, the mosque was restored and organically supplemented with an indispensable element of the Muslim cult - a high minaret, after which it resumed its spiritual and cultural services.
Today, Orta Jame in Batumi is the only surviving mosque in Batumi. There is a school at the mosque where children study the Koran.
