Raižiai Mosque, Wooden mosque in Raižiai, Lithuania.
The Raižiai Mosque features traditional Islamic architectural elements adapted to Lithuanian building methods, incorporating wooden construction techniques throughout its structure.
Built in 1889, this religious structure remained the only operational mosque during the Soviet period, maintaining continuous Islamic worship in Lithuania.
The mosque houses a minbar from 1686, which stands as the oldest remaining prayer pulpit from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth period.
Located at Vytauto Street 9 in Raižiai village, the mosque opens its doors for regular prayers and functions as a center for 500 local Tatars.
Two sundials installed near the mosque in 2010 display both local time and the time at the Battle of Grunwald location in Poland.
