Masjid Sultan is Singapore's most iconic mosque — the golden-domed landmark at the heart of Kampong Glam. The present building, designed by Denis Santry of Swan & Maclaren and completed in 1932, replaced the original 1820s mosque built for Sultan Hussein Shah. Its prayer hall is one of the largest in Singapore and it remains a focal point for the Muslim community and visitors alike.
