The Great Mosque of Tirana or Namazgâh Mosque is a mosque which is currently being built in Tirana, Albania. When completed, it will be the largest mosque in the Balkans.
After the fall of communism in Albania, in 1991, Albanian Muslims often complained about being discriminated against. While two cathedrals were built, as of 2016 Muslims in Albania still had no central mosque and had to pray in the streets. In 1992, then president, Sali Berisha, laid the first stone of a mosque to be constructed near Namazgja square, close to the parliament. Construction was delayed after the speaker of parliament, Pjetër Arbnori, a Catholic, contested the plans.
