Description
The Sultan Murat Mosque was built by the Ottoman Sultan Murat II (reigned 1421-1451) in 1436. It is the oldest surviving mosque in Skopje and was restored several times (for example in the 18th century and in 1912). The German photograph from 1916 shows the entrance to the mosque in the North.
