Biggest of all mosques in Hamburg. Centre of the religious and cultural life of the huge Iranian community. The Imams of Hamburg happen to have played important roles in Iran's religious and political everyday life since their installation in the 1950s.
The Islamic Centre Hamburg, was the proprietor organisation of the Imam Ali Mosque also known as the Blue Mosque, the oldest mosque in Hamburg, Germany. It was established in the late 1950s by a group of Iranian emigrants and construction was completed in the early 1960s. The IZH served both as a place of worship and of inner- and inter-religious dialogue.
