Al-Fath Mosque

Al-Fath Mosque, Modern Islamic complex in Ramses Square, Cairo, Egypt.

Description

Al-Fath Mosque is a modern prayer house on Ramses Square with a tall, visible minaret and spacious interior areas for worshippers. The complex includes teaching halls, a library, and a museum that together form a complete religious and academic institution.

History

The site has served as a religious center since the 7th century when Islamic conquerors settled in the then-village of Um Dunin. The modern building we see today was constructed much later and now defines the Ramses area.

Culture

This complex functions as a center for Islamic learning and houses collections of books and rare manuscripts. Visitors can experience how it serves as a place for scholarly exchange and religious education in the community.

Practical

The space is generously laid out and easy to enter, with clear areas for visitors and worshippers. There is also an on-site clinic if you need medical assistance, and rooms for learning and rest.

Did you know?

The minaret rises high above the city and ranks among the world's tallest, giving it a special role in the skyline. This height makes it visible from many locations and turns it into a distinctive landmark of Cairo.
