Mosque in Nemėžis, Wooden mosque in Nemėžis, Lithuania
The mosque follows local architectural patterns with its wooden structure, central minaret, and onion dome topped by a crescent on the roof.
The current mosque, built in 1909 by architect Aleksandr Sonin, stands on a site where previous Islamic structures existed since 1684.
The mosque holds a decorated Quran near the mihrab, displaying patterns and motifs specific to the Lithuanian Tatar community.
