The Church of Saint Nicholas (Albanian: Kisha e Shën Nikollës, Kisha e Shna Kollit), also known as the Selimije Mosque (Albanian: Xhamia e Selimies), the Church-Mosque of Lezhë (Kisha-Xhami), and, since the 1980s, as the Skanderbeg National Memorial, is a former Roman Catholic church and subsequently a former Islamic mosque, and now a mausoleum and monument that contains the remains of Skanderbeg. The structure is located in Lezhë, Albania. Likely to have been established in c. 1st century BC, the church was repurposed as a mosque after 1478, partially destroyed in c. 1967, and again repurposed as a mausoleum in 1981. The structure is in a partial ruinous state. The site was designated as a Cultural Monument of Albania.
