Altun-Alem Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Novi Pazar, Serbia.
The Altun-Alem Mosque features a twelve-sided minaret constructed with sandstone blocks, walls of hewn sandstone, and a brick-covered dome.
Master builder Abdul Gani constructed this mosque between 1516 and 1528, during a period when Ottoman architectural practices from Edirne influenced regional buildings.
The mosque includes a religious school within its enclosed area, serving as an educational center for the Muslim community of Novi Pazar.
Located on Prvog Maja Street, the former imperial carriage route that connected Mitrovica, Skopje, and Istanbul, makes this mosque easily accessible.
The mosque's name derives from Altuna, one of three wealthy sisters who funded its construction while her siblings supported a cemetery and fountain.
