Ecological buiding design has been on the agenda for the last two decades with the rapid increase of industrialization and the
subsequent environmental pollution. Today, the decrease in energy resources and the orientation towards renewable energy sources have
become an important parameter for ecological design. Ecological building design, especially in developed countries, especially schools,
housing, museums, etc. as well as quite different types of structures. However, ecological searches continue in different building types.
One of the most recent of these is the Cambridge Central Mosque, which was opened in the UK in 2019 with its eco-friendly slogan.
Ecological design factors were used in the design and manufacturing elements of this mosque. However, although this mosque was
introduced as the first eco-friendly mosque in the world, there are many examples of mosques built on the earth as environmentally friendly
and built centuries ago. In this study, Cambridge Central Mosque is examined and a compilation of environmentally friendly mosques is
explained and how new this mosque is in this context is explained.
