Ulu Mosque

The Ulu Mosque is a prayer hall in Utrecht's West district spread across multiple floors, with the main worship space on the second level. It features two large balconies for women worshippers and ground-floor shops serving the local community.

The building opened in 2015 and was the first major mosque built in this part of Utrecht. It marked a significant moment for the Islamic community's visible presence in the city.

The mosque has a meditation room open to people of all faiths, reflecting how the neighborhood brings together residents from different religious backgrounds. This space shows how the building serves as a meeting point beyond prayer.

The building is accessible from several entrances and has parking available near the plaza. The ground-floor shops are open regularly, making visits practical for both worshippers and passersby.

The glass brick minarets light up at sunset, creating a modern take on traditional mosque design. These illuminated towers stand out at night and blend contemporary materials with religious symbolism.
