Mescid-i Aksa Mosque, Turkish mosque in central The Hague, Netherlands.

The Mescid-i Aksa Mosque sits on Wagenstraat 103, featuring two minarets and a neoclassical architectural design that combines Turkish and Dutch elements.

Originally built as a synagogue in 1844, the building transformed into a mosque in 1981 after the Turkish Muslim community acquired legal ownership.

The mosque maintains strong connections with the Turkish community in The Hague while offering religious services and educational programs to all Muslims.

The religious center provides separate prayer spaces for men and women, with direct access from the Wagenstraat in the city center.

The structure holds the status of Rijksmonument number 459778, recognizing its transition from a synagogue to a mosque while preserving historical elements.
