džamija [mosque]. The fountain in the courtyard.
This mosque, designed by the prominent Turkish architect Mimar
Sinan (Ağırnas, 1490 - Istanbul, 17 July 1588), was built between
1557 and 1558. He suffered severe damage during World War II, and was practically destroyed during the Bosnian War (1992-1995). It was rebuilt with international aid in the early 21st century and reopened in July 2004.
