The Berlin Mosque, officially the Wilmersdorfer Mosque, is an Islamic religious building located in the Wilmersdorf borough of Berlin on Brienner Straße. Designed by K. A. Hermann and constructed between 1923 and 1925, the mosque exemplifies Neo-Mughal style, featuring an onion dome and pastel colors that echo the great monuments of the Mughal Empire, notably the Taj Mahal in its symmetrical composition. The building is distinguished by two 27-metre-tall minarets. Inaugurated on 26 April 1925, the mosque sustained severe damage during World War II; its minarets were subsequently rebuilt between 1999 and 2001. Currently owned and administered by the Lahore Ahmadiyya Movement, the complex includes an adjacent two-storey imam's residence. The building holds status as an architectural heritage monument.
