The Tanners' Mosque (Albanian: Xhamia e Tabakëve) is a mosque located near the Tanners' Bridge in Tirana, capital of Albania. Built in the neighborhood of the handicraft-trade Tanners' guild around the seventeenth century, it was damaged by a lightning shot but continues to function thanks to improvements made by the family Resmja which even today continues to care for.
