Mosques

Parepare, a coastal city in South Sulawesi, is home to a small but significant Muslim community supported by several prominent mosques. Based on available mapped records, the city features at least three listed prayer places, with the most notable being the Parepare Grand Mosque and the B.J. Habibie Floating Mosque. These mosques are located in the districts of Ujung and Bacukiki Barat, providing accessible prayer facilities for residents and visitors alike.

The Parepare Grand Mosque, situated on Jl. Mesjid Raya in the Ujung Sabbang neighbourhood of Ujung district, serves as a central place of worship just 0.6 km from the city centre. Meanwhile, the B.J. Habibie Floating Mosque, located in Cappa Galung, Bacukiki Barat, offers a unique waterfront prayer experience 2.7 km away. Another listed mosque, Al Ghazali Mosque, is found in Bumi Harapan, also in Bacukiki Barat, approximately 2.8 km from the city centre. These three mosques represent the primary mapped prayer places in Parepare, covering the Ujung and Bacukiki Barat areas.

For Muslims living in or visiting Parepare, these mosques provide essential spaces for daily prayers, Friday congregations, and community gatherings. The presence of the floating mosque adds a distinctive architectural and spiritual landmark to the city. While the current data shows a limited number of listed prayer places, the existing mosques are well-distributed across key districts, ensuring that worshippers in Ujung and Bacukiki Barat have convenient access to prayer facilities. New arrivals, students, and travellers can rely on these mapped locations for their religious needs.

The listed mosques are based on available mapped records. Always verify addresses and distances before visiting. Contact information, if needed, may be found through local directories or by visiting the mosque directly. Opening hours and prayer times vary; check locally for accurate schedules.
