The Khalid Ibn Al-Walid Mosque is a place of prayer in the 2nd arrondissement of Marseille, in the streets that climb from the Vieux-Port towards Joliette. It welcomes worshippers for the five daily prayers and for the Friday prayer.
Getting there
The area is served by metro line 2 at Joliette station and by tramway T2. Walking from the Vieux-Port takes about ten minutes, going up towards La Major. By car, access runs along the quays, with easier parking in the local public car parks, notably at Terrasses du Port. Traffic at peak hours is dense.
The neighbourhood
The 2nd arrondissement combines old working-class quarters, 19th-century Marseille facades and recent Euroméditerranée developments. La Major cathedral and the MuCEM museum are a few minutes away. The local commercial fabric mixes halal butchers and grocers, long-standing shops and restaurants from around the world, with a particular concentration towards Belsunce and Cours Julien.
Practical advice for a visit
The hall serves a local community and attendance is heavier on Friday noon. A first visit is easier on a weekday, outside Ramadan Tarawih night prayers. 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 Marseille
The Marseille centre has several other nearby prayer venues. The Grands Carmes Mosque, the Bilal Ben Rabah Mosque, the Tahara Mosque, the As-Sunna Grand Mosque in the 3rd and the El Imane Mosque are among the options accessible from the city centre.
