From Wikipedia
The Kokonozi Mosque, officially the Mosque of Mahmud Agha Kokonozi (Albanian: Xhamia e Mahmut Agë Kokonozit), also known as the New Bazaar Mosque (Albanian: Xhamia e Pazarit të Ri), is a mosque in Tirana, Albania. It is an Ottoman-era mosque built in 1750 CE and one of the few mosques that survived the Communist dictatorship under the Hoxhaist regime. The mosque's official name is derived from the Ottoman-era title of Agha.
In 1966, the Kokonozi Mosque was closed and transformed into a food storehouse, and later it was used as a tobacco store. The Kokonozi Mosque was reopened on 18 February 1991.
