The Lead Mosque (Albanian: Xhamia e Plumbit, Turkish: Kurşun Camii), also known as the Izgurli Mosque, is a 16th-century historical mosque located in Berat, south-central Albania.
[1] It was built in the years of 1553 and 1554 by the local nobleman Ahmet Bej Uzgurliu, at the time a vassal of the Skuraj family,[2] and is currently a Cultural Monument of Albania.
Explorer Evliya Çelebi’s description told of carved stones underneath the lead, topping off a complex including a bazaar, madrasa, imaret, school, Turkish bath, and shadirvan.
The prayer hall is square with a northern portico and a tall, thin minaret molded in cloisonné where it meets the roof.
