Welcome to Madrid

This centre was opened on September 21, 1992, and is now considered to be the biggest Islamic cultural institution in Spain. It has since become the house of Islam in Madrid and is frequented by thousands of Muslims and non-Muslims alike who are attracted by its special minaret (one of the two that exist in Spain). As it is situated next to the busy M30 road, it is popularly known as Mezquita de la M30 (the M30 Mosque).

The Mosque is the largest in Spain and its interior is inspired by the Alhambra in Granada. The complex of 12,000 m2 is distributed in six floors and includes a school, a library (with contents in Arabic, Spanish, English and French), two exhibition halls, a museum, an auditorium, a gym, houses of the director and the imam and the restaurant Alzahra. The façade is decorated with marble from Almeria.
