About Esma Sultan Masjid, Jajce

The Esma Sultan Masjid is the largest and most important Ottoman mosque in Jajce, in the centre of the town. An inscription over the door dates it to 1749-50 and names the military officer Emir Mustafa as its builder, but local tradition attributes it to Esma, wife of a Bosnian governor, who is said to have also built two bridges over the Vrbas, and the mosque carries her name. The complex once included a fountain, a mekteb for children and a graveyard. All of it was destroyed in 1993, and the mosque was rebuilt between 2003 and 2010 in its original form. It is open to visitors outside prayer times and is a short walk from the Jajce waterfall and the fortress.
