Birmingham Central Mosque

One of Britain’s major city mosques, reflecting Birmingham’s Muslim communities and the changing religious map of the inner city.

Birmingham Central Mosque is an important landmark of the city's postwar religious and social history. Its dome and minaret mark a different Birmingham from the Victorian civic core, pointing to the communities that reshaped the city in the late twentieth century.

It is not a conventional tourist monument, and visitors should approach it respectfully as an active place of worship. For travellers interested in living Birmingham rather than only museums and canals, it adds a valuable layer to the story of the inner city.
