Et'hem Bey Mosque

Et'hem Bey Mosque – A Quiet Symbol of Albanian Faith and Resilience
Set in Skanderbeg Square, the Et'hem Bey Mosque is a small but meaningful piece of Tirana’s story. Built in the 18th century, it survived both earthquakes and communism, reopening in the 1990s as a cherished symbol of cultural and spiritual identity. 

Its exterior is simple, but inside, you’ll find delicate frescoes depicting trees, bridges, and nature—rare in Islamic art. The mosque feels peaceful, even in the heart of the city, and it’s open to visitors outside of prayer times. 

Modest, resilient, and beautiful in its detail, Et'hem Bey Mosque reminds you of how faith endures through history.
