The Atik or Sarena Mosque, the Colourful Mosque, is one of the oldest and most beautiful mosques in Tuzla, dating from the Ottoman era and known for its painted decoration. A reminder of the citys long Islamic heritage, it stands amid the old town alongside churches and other places of worship that reflect Tuzlas multi-faith character. Admiring the mosque and the surrounding historic quarter offers a sense of the citys layered religious and cultural history.
