The biggest mosque in the town but in our opinion, it's its history rather than its size that makes it special. Gazi Husrev Bey, as you probably already know if you've read up on Sarajevo, is one of the most important people for the city's history. He is famous as he was a great philanthropist that left all his inheritance to the town's Muslim community that was later used to build the public library, high-school and a public bathroom in the area. The mosque was built while the Bey was still alive. He received and order (as the governor of the Sanjak of Bosnia) from the Ottoman emperor Suleiman I to build a central mosque in the town. Gazi Husrev Bey obeyed and built what is now known as Bey's Mosque. He also decided to build a smaller mosque on the opposite side of the river in his name and leave it to community. After both mosques were completed he informed the emperor. The emperor was pleased but ordered Gazi Husrev Bey to switch the names of the mosques and he was certain that the Bey put his name on the bigger and more beautiful mosque. As we know today, this was was not true, but Gazi Husrev Bey obeyed and now the city's central mosque bears his name, while the Emperor's Mosque is on the opposite side of the river from the city center.
