Mosques

Zurich, Switzerland's largest city, offers a growing network of mosques and prayer rooms for its Muslim community. Within a 50 km radius, our mapped records show 20 listed prayer places, with several located directly in Zurich and many more in surrounding cities such as Winterthur, Lucerne, Emmen, Ebikon, and Kriens. In Zurich itself, notable listed mosques include the Association of Islamic Cultural Centers on Birmensdorferstrasse in the 8055 district, and the Albanisch-Islamische Gemeinschaft Zürich on Rautistrasse in the 8047/8048 area. These locations provide essential prayer facilities for residents and visitors in the city.

Beyond Zurich, the nearby city of Winterthur hosts a significant concentration of prayer places, with addresses in districts such as Theaterstrasse, Lindstrasse, Schlachthofstrasse, Kronaustrasse, Ohrbühlstrasse, Bürglistrasse, and Hofackerstrasse. Listed mosques include Verein Türkgücü Winterthur, Stiftung Winterthurer Moschee, Albanische Moschee Winterthur, and several others, reflecting a diverse Islamic presence.

For Muslims living in or visiting Zurich, the implantation of mosques and prayer rooms spans several key areas: the city of Zurich itself, the Winterthur region (with multiple addresses in the 8400–8409 postal codes), and the Lucerne/Emmen/Ebikon corridor. While exact neighbourhood names are not always specified in the data, the addresses indicate a presence in both central and peripheral districts. This network supports daily prayers, Jumu'ah, and community gatherings, making it easier for new arrivals, students, workers, and families to find a suitable prayer place. Always verify details directly with the mosque before visiting, as services and timings may vary.

Check the address and distance of each mosque before visiting. Contact information may be available on the mosque's website or social media. Prayer times and Jumu'ah schedules are typically posted at the mosque or online. Verify accessibility and facilities directly with the mosque, as details may change.
