The story

Story · Fatih Sultan Mehmet Mosque

  • en
  • nl

You're standing inside Rozafa Castle, high above Shkodër, next to a ruin that has lived two very different lives. What you see here started out as a Catholic cathedral dedicated to Saint Stephen, and later became a mosque. Take a look at the old walls around you. This is one of the very few buildings in Shkodër that survive from the Middle Ages.
