The Karađoz Bey Mosque (Bosnian: Karađoz-begova džamija; Turkish: Karagöz Mehmed Bey Camii) is a Sunni mosque, located in the city of Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Completed in 965 AH (1557/1558 CE) during the Ottoman era, the mosque was destroyed in the early 1990s during the Bosnian War, and rebuilt in 2004. With its large dome and 34.5-metre-tall (113 ft) minaret, it is one of the largest mosques in the region.
