In the spirit of the special Ramadan atmosphere that fills our city these days, we share with you scenes of the Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque — its quiet monumentality on the outside and its enchanting beauty within.
Photographs of the interior and exterior, from the Nusret Halačević Collection, preserved in the Photo Archive of the Museum of Sarajevo, bear witness to a space that has gathered faith, time, and memories for centuries.
From the threshold, you are only one step away from its serene and dignified world. While the rich illumination speaks to the artistic value of the space, the true magic lies in the natural light streaming through its many windows, filling the interior with warmth and tranquility. In those rays gliding across stone columns and painted walls, past and present seem to meet, if only for a moment.
Ramadan brings an added, almost tangible tenderness to Sarajevo. Within that tenderness, the Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque stands as an enduring symbol of spirituality, harmony, and beauty that we share and preserve.
We invite you to experience a glimpse of that atmosphere through these photographs and to reflect on the rich heritage we continue to cherish and safeguard.
Ramadan Sherif Mubarek Olsun
