The Association Culturelle Des Travailleurs Turcs runs a prayer venue at 34 rue Coustou in Lille. This venue is mainly frequented by the city's Turkish community and holds the five daily prayers as well as the Friday prayer.
Getting there
Rue Coustou lies in the Fives district, a few minutes on foot from Fives metro station (line 1). From Lille Flandres, two stops are enough to reach the area. Several bus lines round out the network. By car, access is via boulevard de Metz and boulevard de l'Usine.
The neighbourhood
Fives is marked by its industrial past and by significant cultural diversity. The renewal of the Fives-Cail site has brought new urban dynamism, with public spaces, new housing and shops. Turkish grocers, bakeries and halal shops can be reached on foot around place Degeyter and rue Pierre Legrand.
Practical advice for a visit
The venue mainly serves a local community and the atmosphere is family-oriented. Friday noon and Ramadan Tarawih night prayers draw a larger crowd. Shoes come off before entering the prayer hall, clothing should cover shoulders and legs, and women cover their hair. Quiet is expected as soon as you step inside.
Other mosques in Lille
Lille has several other mosques a few metro stops away. Mosquée Assounna on rue Jean du Solier, Mosquée Al Imane on rue de Marquillies, Mosquée Es-Salam on rue Jean Jaurès, Mosquée Badr on rue d'Arras and Mosquée El Moustafa on rue Léonard Danel are among the main options. Roubaix and Tourcoing round out the network along metro line 2.
