South Wales Islamic Centre

"The South Wales Islamic Centre, Alice Street, Cardiff was built in the late 1970's in the classical Arabic style by Davies Llewellyn Partnership. The building occupies 250 square meters, and has an impressive bronze dome around which are 16 stained glass windows designed by students of the College of Art, Swansea. The lower parts of the structure are built of red bricks. The building includes a Women's centre and main area for worship. The monument is an outstanding example of a single-space domed Mosque built in the Butetown area of Cardiff with classical style, and with a minaret abutting the left hand side. Due to its architecture, structural it is a focal point for many Muslims in Wales and is visited by many local schools."
