Divič Mosque

The Divič Mosque was destroyed by Serbian forces in 1992 early in the war and an Orthodox Church was built upon its ruins in 1996.

In the past few years negotiations arranged for the re-location of the Church and the re-construction of the Mosque. As reported in the link that follows, the Muslim community paid for the re-location of the church and the reconstruction. LINK

The following link (in Bosanski), shows the Mosque under construction: LINK

The recent photo to the right shows the progress being made.
