Centrum-Moschee, Ottoman mosque in St. Georg, Hamburg, Germany.
Centrum-Moschee is a house of worship with a central dome and two minarets located in St. Georg. The exterior is marked by green and white hexagonal patterns that create a distinctive visual presence on the building.
The community was founded in 1977 by Turkish workers seeking a place for their religious practice. The construction of the building followed this initiative and shaped the area's religious landscape.
The mosque serves as a meeting place for people of different backgrounds in the neighborhood. It fosters regular encounters between worshippers and visitors from the local community.
The building is located in an easily accessible residential neighborhood with public transport connections. Visitors should check current opening times, as regular prayer times affect when the space is available for visits.
The minarets were redesigned in 2009 by artist Boran Burchhardt as a removable art installation featuring geometric patterns. This transformation was groundbreaking in mosque architecture and merges spiritual and artistic expression.
