Bajrakli Džamija (Belgrade, Serbia)
The Bajrakli Mosque (or Бајракли џамија / Bajrakli džamija in Serbian and Bayraklı Camii in Turkish) is a mosque in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. It is located in Gospodar Jevremova Street in the neighborhood of Dorćol. It was built around 1575, and is the only mosque in the city out of the 273 that had existed during the time of the Ottoman Empire's rule of Serbia.
During the occupation of Serbia by the Austrians (between 1717 and 1739), it was converted into a Roman Catholic church; but after the Ottomans retook Belgrade, it was returned to its original function.
It was damaged after being set on fire on March 18, 2004, during that year's unrest in Kosovo, in violent protest to the burning of Serbian churches in Kosovo, but it was later repaired.
