Sheikh Zamil Abdullah Al Zamil Mosque

Mosque of sheikh Zamil Abdullah Al-Zamil, Al-Zamil Mosque, Rruga Fushe Cele, Xhamia Ebu Beker
Albania, Shkoder
Sheikh Zamil Abdullah Al-Zamil Mosque is one of the newest Islamic shrines in Albania. It was built in 1995 in the center of Shkoder. The construction of the Islamic temple was sponsored by Sheikh Zamil Abdul from Saudi Arabia. The mosque is made in Turkish style. It has quite impressive dimensions. So its area is more than 600 square meters, and the capacity is about 1500 people. The mosque has two minarets 42 meters high and three domes (the central one is large and two are small). In the interior of the mosque you can see a mixture of Islamic traditions and modern style. Forged candlesticks are a notable feature of the interior decoration of the mosque. The largest one is located under the dome and consists of three forged rings with a diameter of 9, 6 and 3 meters. The remaining candlesticks are located along the perimeter of the shrine and are rings 2 meters in diameter on iron cables.

The Sheikh Zamil Abdullah Al-Zamil Mosque is located at the very beginning of the famous Kol Idromeno pedestrian street, next to Democracy Square. It's hard not to notice her. This is a very beautiful, majestic, modern building. I would say that it is the main building of Shkoder, although it does not have an ancient history. The Albanians themselves (and on the maps too) call it Xhamia e Madhe, that is, the Great Mosque and it fully justifies its name. Inside the mosque is also very beautiful. The entrance is free.
