Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies, courtyard, dome and minaret
View in the Turkish Courtyard with the fountain, mosque dome, and minaret. Taken during Oxford Open Doors, thanks to volunteers from Oxford Preservation Trust which organises the event.
Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies
The Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies was established in 1985 and is a Recognised Independent Centre of the University of Oxford. Its new premises on the Marston Road are being built slowly, 11 years so far. The building is in stone rather than steel and cement. There is substantial detailed decoration in traditional Islamic style. The site includes a mosque with minaret.
