Bajrakli Mosque

Peja Municipality, Kosovo · built 1471

The Bajrakli Mosque (Albanian: Bajrakli Xhamia, Bosnian: Bajrakli džamija, Serbian), also known as the Bazaar Mosque (Albanian: Çarshi Xhamia, Bosnian: Pazar džamija), is the main mosque situated in the centre of the Bazaar of Peja, Kosovo. It was built in 1471 by Sultan Mehmed II and is an Ottoman-style single-domed mosque with the oldest and highest dome in the city.
