Grand Mosque of Copenhagen

The Grand Mosque of Copenhagen is a house of worship in Ydre Nørrebro built with distinctive modern materials including titanium, glass, and polished concrete. The building includes a main prayer area for about 3000 people inside and additional space in the courtyard for further gatherings.

The building was completed in 2014 and represents a major religious facility for Denmark's Muslim community. Its opening marked an important moment in Copenhagen's religious landscape.

The mosque serves as a gathering place for Copenhagen's Muslim community, offering space for religious practice and community events. You can observe how people from different backgrounds come together here for prayer and social connection.

The location is easily accessible by public transportation and sits in a residential neighborhood with good connectivity. Visitors should be aware that prayer times need to be respected and appropriate dress is required for entry.

The minaret cannot be used for the call to prayer due to a municipal agreement with local authorities. Instead, small external speakers serve only the worshippers present on site.
