Umar Ibn Al Khattab Mosque, Islamic prayer center in Kreuzberg, Germany.

The Umar Ibn Al Khattab Mosque features a two-story gallery prayer hall and four seven-meter-tall minarets with gilded crescents at their peaks.

Built on a site formerly occupied by a Bolle supermarket that burned during the 1987 Kreuzberg riots, this mosque opened its doors in 2010.

The Maschari Center within the mosque complex includes spaces for Quran school, boutiques, cafes, and a supermarket serving the Muslim community.

Located near Görlitzer Bahnhof U-Bahn station at Wiener Straße intersection, the mosque accommodates 1,000 worshippers for regular prayers and gatherings.

The construction of this ten-million-euro religious complex transformed an abandoned plot into a central hub for Islamic activities in Berlin.
