Mosques • Koforidua

Koforidua, the capital of the Eastern Region, is home to a growing Muslim community. While the city itself has a limited number of mapped mosques within its immediate boundaries, the surrounding areas—particularly to the south and east—host a significant concentration of prayer places. Within a 50 km radius, over 20 listed mosques and prayer rooms are recorded, with many located in the Adenta Municipality, Amrahia, Agbogba, and other nearby communities. This network provides accessible options for Muslims living in or visiting Koforidua.

Among the notable listed mosques are the Otinibi Junction Mosque and Amrahia Zongo Mosque in Amrahia, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mosque - Old Ashongman and Agbogba Central Mosque in Agbogba, and several in the Adenta Municipality such as Adenta Housing Down Central Mosque, Akatamanso Mosque, and Alhaji Belko central mosque. Other prayer places include Masalachi in New Legon, Nsuoanu Central Mosque in Madina, and Oyarifa Central Mosque in Pantang West. These facilities are spread across various sectors, offering prayer options for residents and travellers.

For those in Koforidua, the closest listed mosque is Kuano in Suhum, approximately 22.5 km away, while many others are concentrated in the Adenta area, about 40–50 km from the city centre. This distribution suggests that while Koforidua itself may have fewer mapped prayer places, the broader region—especially the Greater Accra border areas—provides a robust infrastructure for daily prayers and community gatherings. Muslims in Koforidua can plan their routes accordingly, whether for Jumu'ah or daily salah.

When visiting any of these mosques, verify the exact address and opening hours, as details may vary. Many listings include only a city or municipality name; use the provided coordinates or contact information if available. For Friday prayers, consider arriving early, especially at larger mosques like those in Adenta Municipality. Always confirm accessibility and facilities directly with the mosque.
