The Faik Pasha Mosque is a former Ottoman mosque in Arta, in Greece's Epirus region, also known locally as the Imaret of Arta. Built of brick and stone and completed in the 15th century, it was named after the Ottoman conqueror of the city in 1449 and originally formed a complex with baths, an imaret and a madrasa. It ceased being used as a mosque in the 1820s and has been an archaeological site since the 1990s. It is one of two surviving mosques in Arta.
