Jesenice Mosque, Islamic center in Jesenice, Slovenia.

The Jesenice Mosque features modern architectural elements combined with traditional Islamic design, including an 80-centimeter minaret added during renovations in 1992.

The establishment of the mosque in 1988 followed the first Islamic observances in July 1969, marking the beginning of formal Muslim gatherings in Jesenice.

The mosque serves over 5,000 Muslims from Western Bosnia, North Macedonia, and Kosovo, reflecting the diverse population that arrived during the steel industry expansion.

Located on Viktor Kejžar Street number 19, the mosque complex includes a library, classroom, ablution fountain, and administrative offices for community services.

In 2002, Jesenice registered the highest percentage of Muslim residents in Slovenia, with 18 percent of the municipal population identifying as Muslim.
