Grand Mosque of Paris, Paris, France. The Grande Mosquée de Paris is located in the 5th arrondissement and is one of the largest mosques in France. Built in Neo-Mudéjar style, the mosque was founded in 1926 as a token of gratitude, after WWI, to the Muslim tirailleurs (or "shooting skirmishers") from France's colonial empire. Initially sponsored by the king of Morocco, the mosque was assigned to Algeria in 1957 by the French Foreign Minister. The mosque is currently led by mufti Dalil Boubakeur.
