Euro Islam Architecture

New Mosques in the West

Christian Welzbacher

Series: SUN Statements

Every year more than hundred mosques are to be built all over Europe. This leads to controversies and misunderstandings. In Euro Islam Architecture: New Mosques in the West, Christian Welzbacher writes about the consequences of this development for architecture and society.

Does Euro-Islamic architecture exist? With so many new prayer houses built, we have to acknowledge that there is something like a Euro-Islamic architecture. What do these buildings look like? What meaning do they have for architecture in general? Welzbacher describes the new architecture of Islam in Europe and shows that the self confidence of European Muslims has increased enormously. This can be seen in the new mosques in Rotterdam and Köln, and in the competitions in Strassbourg and London.
