Centrum-Moschee

Centrum-Moschee, Mosque in St. Georg, Hamburg, Germany

Centrum-Moschee is a mosque in the St. Georg neighborhood of Hamburg, with a central dome, two minarets, and a green and white geometric pattern covering its facade. The building sits on a residential street and is clearly visible from the surrounding area.

The mosque community was founded in 1977 by Turkish guest workers as the "Society of Turkish Workers in Hamburg and Surroundings for the Founding and Construction of a Mosque". That year it bought a building that had housed the Hammonia-Bad baths around the turn of the century. In 1990 an extension was begun and later topped with a dome and two minarets; the foundation stone was laid in 1992 in the presence of Turkish prime minister Necmettin Erbakan. The association took its current name in 2001.

The community was founded by Turkish guest workers and was originally called the "Society of Turkish Workers in Hamburg and Surroundings for the Founding and Construction of a Mosque"; the association took its current name in 2001. Its Lindenbazar, founded in 1999, funds the community's work and trains young people with Turkish, Kurdish, Russian, Chechen, Bosnian and Afghan roots. Ahmet Yazici, once deputy chairman, is its managing director.

The mosque stands in St. Georg, served by the U1 and U3 lines at Lohmühlenstraße and by several bus routes. The entrance is on the street side of the 1990 annex, whose dome and two minarets face the road; the older 1977 building behind it once housed the Hammonia-Bad baths. Visitors should come outside prayer times.

In 2009 the artist Boran Burchhardt painted the two minarets with a pattern of green and white hexagons, working with the mosque's leadership. The project drew worldwide interest as the first time a part of a building that marks it outwardly as a mosque, and is also transportable, was made into an artwork.
