The Kapllan Pasha Tomb is an Ottoman türbe (funerary monument) built in 1817 in central Tirana, Albania, and designated a Cultural Monument of the first category in 1948. The structure features eight columns of carved stone set upon an octagonal base and capped with octagonal capitals, exemplifying Ottoman architectural refinement. The tomb originally housed the remains of a former Ottoman ruler of Tirana, though his body was later transferred to Istanbul. Standing adjacent to the now-destroyed Sylejman Pasha Mosque—razed during World War II—the monument was restored by the Municipality of Tirana in 1985.
