Penshurst Mosque is a mosque located in the southern Sydney suburb of Penshurst, in the St George Area.
The Penshurst Mosque was acquired in 1986 by the Bosnian community at 445-447 Forest Road, Penshurst. For nearly 30 years the Mosque has been serving the needs of the Bosnian Muslim community with a long history of co-existence and tolerance.
History[]
The earliest beginnings of Penshurst Mosque go back to the establishment of the Australian Bosnian Islamic Society Gazi Husrev-beg which was formed in the late 1980s by Bosnian immigrants.
