The Islamic Cultural Centre and London Central Mosque, Park Road, Regent's Park, Westminster, Greater London

The Islamic Cultural Centre and London Central Mosque was built between 1970 and 1977 to designs by Sir Frederick Gibberd and Partners. A movement to create a central mosque in London emerged during the early 20th century. A politically sensitive idea, the government gave proactive support in 1944, providing funds for a site adjacent to Regent's Park.

An international competition was launched in 1968. Fifty-two designs were received, forty-one from abroad. The winner was London-based architect Sir Frederick Gibberd. Built of concrete with polished Portland stone, it has a dome clad in gold-coloured copper alloy sheeting.

The Islamic Cultural Centre & London Central Mosque was Listed Grade II* in 2018 for its architectural and historic interest.
