Mosquée

In 1977, the Muslim community of Évry expressed the need for a place of worship to the local municipality and public development agency. To enhance the project's ambition, the Muslim Cultural Association of Île-de-France was established in 1981 to oversee the construction of the mosque. The architectural plans were designed by Marc Henry-Baudot, who had previously worked in Algeria from 1963 to 1978. Construction began in 1984, with the structural work completed by 1987, and the mosque officially opened to the public in 1994.
