Tanners' Mosque, Ottoman mosque near Tanners' Bridge in Tirana, Albania.
The Tanners' Mosque exhibits traditional Ottoman architectural elements with a prominent minaret rising against the Tirana skyline and decorative stone walls.
The mosque emerged during the seventeenth century Ottoman period to serve the local leather crafting community that operated in this area of Tirana.
The mosque maintains its role as an active religious center under the guidance of imam Elvis Naçi, hosting regular prayers and community gatherings.
The religious site opens its doors to visitors outside prayer times, requiring modest dress and removal of shoes before entering the prayer hall.
A lightning strike once damaged the structure, but the Resmja family took responsibility for repairs and continues to maintain the building.
