The Fier Mosque, officially the Mosque of Fier (Albanian: Xhamia e Fierit), is a mosque located in the town of Fier, in Fier County, Albania.

Destroyed alongside other houses of worship during the Communist rule of Enver Hoxha, the mosque was rebuilt in 2005,[1] in the Ottoman architectural style. It is one of the largest mosques in Albania and is a local visitors' attraction.

An Ottoman-era mosque is also located in another part of the town of Fier.
