Al Fateh Mosque
A pale dome rises between two slender minarets above a broad prayer hall.
The story behind the place
Al Fateh Mosque stands in Juffair, Manama. Its large pale dome and paired minarets give the building an outline that is easy to recognise across the city. The Bahrain Authority for Culture and Antiquities identifies it as one of the country’s major places of worship. Look from the dome to the lower arcades: large curved forms sit above a rhythm of smaller arches. The building combines a spacious gathering place with carefully worked architectural detail.
