About Old Wooden Masjid of Solun, Olovo

This small wooden mosque stands in the valley of the river Krivaja, about eight kilometres north-west of Olovo on the road to Zavidovići, near the village of Solun. Its date of building is not known for certain, but its lost inscription was said to give the year 1546, which would place it among the oldest mosques of the area. The present building was renewed in 1935 and keeps the original entrance door. It has an open porch with a gallery and a low hipped roof, with a wooden minaret rising through it. In its graveyard is a wooden turbe where, by tradition, twin brothers who were martyrs in the army of Sultan Mehmed al-Fatih are buried, and once a year people gather here to remember them. The building is now in need of care, but it remains a moving example of the old village mosques of central Bosnia.
