Cilacap, a coastal city in Central Java, is home to a diverse Muslim community. While the current mapped records show no listed mosques within the city center, the database reveals a significant concentration of prayer places in the surrounding areas, particularly in the neighboring regency of Banyumas. Within a 50-kilometer radius, there are 20 listed mosques and prayer rooms, primarily located in the towns of Purwokerto and Sokaraja, as well as in various villages within Banyumas Regency. This suggests that Muslims in Cilacap often travel to these nearby areas for congregational prayers or community activities.
