Abou Bakr Mosque stands at 45 rue Anatole France, in the Mistral district of Grenoble. It welcomes residents of the area for the five daily prayers and Friday prayer.
Getting there
TAG tram line A serves the district via the Vallier - Jaurès stop, a few minutes on foot from the mosque. Line E, at Alsace-Lorraine, is a second option for the west of Grenoble. TAG bus lines C1 and 16 complete the service towards the city centre and Saint-Martin-le-Vinoux. By car, the A480 Mistral - Eaux Claires exit is closest, with on-street parking available in the surrounding residential streets.
The neighbourhood
Rue Anatole France structures the north-south axis of the Mistral district, between rehabilitated housing estates and more recent apartment blocks. The area combines social housing and small local shops. Halal butchers and Middle-Eastern grocers are well represented along rue Anatole France and rue Marx Dormoy. Bachelard park and the banks of the Drac river offer green spaces a short distance away.
Practical advice for a visit
The hall hosts an active community, especially on Friday noon. A first visit runs more smoothly outside the main prayers. Shoes come off at the entrance, women cover their hair, clothes should cover shoulders and legs. An area is provided for women. Quiet is expected from the door.
