Crwys Road Welsh Calvinistic Methodist Chapel, Grade II listed chapel in Roath, Cardiff, United Kingdom
The building rises 16 meters high and includes multiple levels with a main worship area, gallery, and lower ground floor rooms for various purposes.
Built in 1899 under architect John H Phillips, this Methodist chapel later transformed into the Shah Jalal Mosque to serve Cardiff's growing Islamic community.
The structure combines architectural elements from Dutch Baroque and medieval styles, reflecting the religious architectural preferences of late Victorian Cardiff.
The religious center maintains a capacity of 600 people and provides spaces for both worship activities and community gatherings in central Cardiff.
The building's transformation from Methodist chapel to Islamic mosque represents the evolution of religious practices in South Wales over the past century.
