Kušlat, also Kučlat, is medieval mosque in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The fortress is located south of Zvornik, not far from Pahljevići, above the confluence of the Jadar and Drinjača, in Zvornik municipality. The fortress had its own podgrađe (), with a trg or trgovište (), and was called Podkučlat. Podkučlat also had a medieval custom for collecting taxes from merchants who traded goods in the region.
== Etymology == In the charter of Bosnian King Stjepan Ostoja from 1417, a witness was mentioned with a name Nikola Kušlatović (Latin: Cuclatovich). In historiography it is presumed that the town was called Kušlat or Kučlat after this family.
