Arnaudija Mosque
Arnaudija džamija
A stone mosque built in 1595, destroyed in 1993 and rebuilt in recent years. It is known along with Ferhadija as one of the old town’s two mosques.
Arnaudija Mosque was funded in 1595 by Hasan Defterdar, a local finance official, and gets its name from his Albanian origins. Like Ferhadija, it is in the 16th-century Ottoman classical style, with a stone body and a lead-covered dome. It was destroyed in 1993 and was rebuilt around 2019. It is about a 10-minute walk from Ferhadija, so it can easily be visited on the way. Visitors outside prayer times should observe mosque etiquette.
