Fatih Moschee, Islamic mosque in Memmingen, Germany
The Fatih Mosque is a prayer house serving the Muslim community in Memmingen with spaces for worship and community gatherings. The building is designed to welcome worshippers of all ages and backgrounds for daily prayers and religious celebrations.
The first Muslim community in Memmingen formed during the 1960s, leading to the creation of a temporary prayer space in the 1970s. The permanent building was constructed and opened in the 2000s as a lasting home for local worshippers.
The mosque incorporates separate entrances and dedicated spaces for men and women, reflecting traditional Islamic architectural principles.
The building is open during the day with daily prayer services, particularly on Fridays when more people gather. It helps to check prayer times in advance and wear respectful clothing when visiting.
During the inauguration ceremony in 2008, representatives from Turkish government, German authorities, and different religious communities gathered to celebrate together.
