Kavajë Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Kavajë, Albania

The Kavajë Mosque features white concrete walls and stands as a central religious structure in the heart of the city center.

Originally constructed in 1735 by Kapllan Beu during Ottoman rule, the mosque underwent reconstruction in 1994 following its destruction during the communist period.

The mosque represents a focal point for Islamic worship in Kavajë, where local residents gather for daily prayers and religious ceremonies throughout the year.

The religious building maintains regular prayer times and welcomes visitors, located near other important landmarks such as the Sahati Clock Tower.

The current structure replaced an earlier mosque that contained Byzantine columns and Arabian arches, marking a shift in architectural styles through time.
