Mahmut Pashe Gjinolli House

The Mahmut Pashe Gjinolli House is a cultural heritage monument in Vučitrn Municipality, Kosovo.
History.
The house of Mahmut Pasha Gjinolli, a member of prominent feudal lord Jashar Pasha Gjinolli’s family lies in western Vučitrn near the Terstena River. Historical records and oral tradition agree on its 19th century origin. Later in the century, it became an Ottoman municipal office (). After World War II, it was put back into use for a similar purpose, going on to serve as an ambulance garage in the 1960s and a shelter for families displaced by floods in 1978. Including a basement and two above-ground floors, the building was built from natural stone reinforced by brick lines with some oak wood panels on the domed roof highlighted by a clock. The front façade is decorated in a Western-influenced style. The house’s exterior is unchanged, and most interior changes amount to re-furnishing.
Facing eastward unlike most feudal buildings of the era, the house overlooks the city from what was at the time of construction its center to better observe the goings-on. Baroque and Ottoman elements coexist in this hybrid building. The domed clock testifies to a business-oriented mentality in the city at the time of construction.
