The Musa Pasha Masjid stands on the left bank of the river Jadar in Nova Kasaba, near Milići in eastern Bosnia. It was built in 1643 as the endowment of Musa Pasha Vehabović, a native of Vikoč near Foča who rose to high command on the Ottoman frontier at Buda. It is a square mosque, about thirteen metres on each side, with a hipped roof and a minaret about 26 metres high. The mosque was demolished in 1993 and its site levelled, but rebuilding began on 13 July 2007, and today it is again an active mosque with a peaceful courtyard.
