Nasir Mosque, Mosque in Gothenburg, Sweden

The Nasir Mosque is a mosque in the Högsbohöjd district of Gothenburg, built for the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. The original 1976 building, designed by White arkitekter, covered about 325 square metres, with an 80-square-metre prayer room, an 85-square-metre imam's flat and 60 square metres of common rooms. A larger replacement, designed by Abdul Raschid of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association in London, opened in 2001 with two prayer halls, meeting rooms and the imam's residence.

The foundation stone was laid on 27 September 1975 by Mirza Nasir Ahmad, caliph of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community from Pakistan, who inaugurated the building on 17 August 1976. It was Sweden's first building erected specifically as a mosque. Designed by White arkitekter, it covered about 325 m², with an 80 m² prayer room, an 85 m² imam's flat and 60 m² of shared rooms. Growing numbers made it too small, and a larger building by Abdul Raschid of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association in London opened in 2001.

The mosque belongs to the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, and its name honours Mirza Nasir Ahmad, the Pakistani caliph who laid the foundation stone on 27 September 1975 and inaugurated the building on 17 August 1976.
