Hysen Pasha Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Berat, Albania.

The Hysen Pasha Mosque features a tall minaret and stands near the center of Berat, displaying traditional Islamic architectural elements from the 17th century.

Built in 1670 by Hussein Pasha, the mosque included a clock tower constructed in 1870, which was later destroyed during the Communist regime in 1967.

The mosque represents a significant example of Islamic heritage in Albania, with its minaret remaining as a testament to Ottoman architectural influence in the region.

The religious building opens daily for prayers and welcomes visitors outside of worship times, with guided tours available in multiple languages.

Following the fall of Communism, the mosque underwent extensive reconstruction work, as only its minaret survived the destruction of the original structure.
