Kuršumlija Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Maglaj, Bosnia and Herzegovina

The Kuršumlija Mosque features a high minaret, lead-covered roof, and traditional Ottoman architectural elements with detailed interior decorations and structural patterns.

Built in 1560, the mosque demonstrates the influence of Ottoman Empire architecture during its expansion through the Balkan region in the 16th century.

The mosque remains an active center for Islamic worship, hosting daily prayers and religious ceremonies that maintain local traditions in the Maglaj community.

Visitors can access the mosque by following the main road through Maglaj's old town, with guided tours available through local cultural organizations.

The mosque's lead-covered roof, which gave it the name Kuršumlija, represents a rare example of traditional Ottoman construction techniques in Bosnia.
