Čobanija Mosque (Bosnian: Džamija Čobanija) was constructed in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, before 1565.[1] The building is quite spacious, with a fine stone minaret. Set into the walls around the minaret is a poem in Turkish.[2] There is a cemetery adjacent to the mosque, which some believe is the final resting place of the benefactor, Čoban-Hasan.[3]

In 2007, a proposal was adopted for the mosque to be listed as a national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina.[4]
