Iljaz Mirahori Mosque (Albanian: Xhamia e Iljaz Mirahorit) is a historic mosque in Korçë, Albania. It was built in 1494 by Iljaz Hoxha (also known as Iljaz Bey Mirahori), who was a veteran of the Istanbul Conquest and the city-founder of Korçë.[1] With its minaret being torn down during the Communist dictatorship, the Iliaz Mirahor mosque was declared a religious Cultural Monument of Albania.[2] After the end of Communist rule in the 1990s, the minaret was rebuilt again in 2014.
