Lead Mosque (Albanian: Xhamia e Plumbit) is a historical mosque in Shkodër, northwestern Albania. It is located on a small lake and is not functional.
It took the name Lead Mosque, because all of its cupolas were covered with lead.
It stands below Rozafa Castle in a medieval quarter and was built in 1743–44 on the model of the Blue Mosque in Istanbul.
