The Qld Muslim Museum is located at:
309 Nursery Road, Holland Park.
The Holland Park Mosque, established in 1908 by Afghan cameleers, is the oldest mosque on Australia’s East Coast and a pivotal spiritual hub for Brisbane’s Muslim community. Housed in a hall adjacent to the historic Holland Park Mosque, the Queensland Muslim Museum was inaugurated on 12 March 2017. The museum offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and contributions of Muslims in Queensland. Visitors can explore a variety of exhibits that highlight the significant role Muslims have played in the state’s development, from the early Afghan cameleers to the diverse community of today.
