Description

The Paris Central Mosque, boasting an impressive 26m-high minaret, was finished in 1926 with ornate art deco and Moorish stylings. Upon visiting the mosque, visitors may take in the intricate tile work and calligraphy of the interior. There's a separate entrance for the North African-style hammam, restaurant, tearoom and small souk (which is more of a gift shop). Please note that visitors must be appropriately dressed.
