The Faik Pasha Mosque (Greek: Τζαμί Φαΐκ Πασά, Albanian: Xhamia e Faik Pashës, from Turkish: Faik Paşa Camii), also known locally as the Imaret of Arta (Greek: Ιμαρέτ της Άρτας), is a former mosque located in the town of Arta, in the Epirus region of Greece. Completed in the 15th century during the Ottoman era, the mosque was named after the Ottoman Empire conqueror of the city in 1449, the mosque formed a complex including baths, an imaret and a madrasa. The building ceased being used as a mosque in the 1820s and has been an archaeological site since the 1990s. It is one of the two surviving mosques in Arta, the other being the Feyzullah Mosque.
