Istiqlal Mosque, Postmodern mosque in Otoka, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Istiqlal Mosque features a copper-colored dome measuring 27 meters in height and diameter, with three large openings allowing natural light inside.
The Indonesian President Suharto initiated the mosque project during his visit to Bosnia in March 1995, leading to its completion in 2001.
The mosque combines Indonesian architectural elements through wooden carvings in windows, Mihrab, and Minbar with contemporary European design principles.
The mosque spans 2800 square meters, making it the largest religious structure in Sarajevo, with two minarets positioned at the entrance.
The structure incorporates stainless steel works and glass elements alongside traditional Islamic architectural features, creating a modern religious space.
