An exhibition tracing the architectural history of the Prophet Mohammed’s (PBUH) mosque has opened in Madinah in Saudi Arabia, giving visitors a closer look at how the landmark has evolved over the centuries. Organised by the Agency for the Affairs of the Prophet’s Mosque, the exhibition was inaugurated by Prince Faisal bin Salman, governor of Madinah. The displays highlight the mosque’s history and distinctive design features, alongside the long-standing efforts devoted to its care. Rare photographs, architectural drawings, visual records of successive construction phases and a range of artefacts are used to illustrate Islamic artistic and architectural traditions. The exhibition is presented through wall panels and digital displays in Arabic and English, with translations available in 12 other languages.
