SULTAN MURAD MOSQUE

 

Sultan Murad Mosque, located in the village of Saray in the city of Skopje in North Macedonia, was built in 1436 by Sultan Murad II and is the oldest of the mosques that can survive today. Sultan Murad Mosque is also known as "Hünkar Mosque".

 

Apart from the mosque, only the ruins of the madrasa and a mosque cemetery with two tombs within its borders remained from the buildings that were built around the mosque and constituted the complex. Skopje Clock Tower is located in the courtyard of the mosque.

 

The mosque, whose restoration started in 2016, was completed and put into service at the end of 2019.
