Recognisable by its four minarets, it is the oldest permanent mosque in Australia.

The mosque was built in 1888–1889, and its four minarets were added in 1903. It was established to serve cameleers and traders arriving in Adelaide after working in the north of the state.

In the early twentieth century the congregation dwindled and the building fell into disrepair. Muslim migration after the Second World War gave it a new lease of life, and it has remained an active place of worship since.

The Central Adelaide Mosque, also known as Adelaide City Mosque or Adelaide Central Mosque or Adelaide Mosque, and formerly known as the Afghan Chapel, is a mosque located in Adelaide, South Australia. The mosque was built in 1888–1889, with its four distinctive minarets added in 1903, and is the oldest permanent mosque in Australia. Located in Little Gilbert Street in the south-west corner of the Adelaide city centre, the mosque was originally built to accommodate the spiritual needs of "Afghan" cameleers and traders coming in after working in South Australia's northern regions. After the congregation dwindled and the mosque fell into disrepair in the early 20th century, it took on a new lease of life with post-World War II Muslim migration, and has since been thriving.
