The Baitus Sami mosque (literally, 'house of the hearer') is located in the German city of Hanover. [1] It has both a dome and minaret, although the minaret is too slender to be climbed. [2] Built by an Ahmadiyya community, the mosque comprises approximately 2,800 square metres (30,000 sq ft), with space for 300 worshippers. [3] Situated at a street in an industrial area outside a nearby residential area, it was inaugurated in August 2008 [4] by the Caliph of the community, Mirza Masroor Ahmad. The construction of the mosque was opposed by many local people, with sometimes violent protests. [3]
