Érd minaret

[1] The minaret stands alone in Érd-Ófalu, near the dam of the Danube, next to a trace of an ancient Roman military road (Mecset Street).

The historian József Molnár gives features of the mosque as a rectangular ornate building with colorful windows, carpets and a Mihrab (prayer niche) opposite the entrance of a stone-framed door.

There was a balcony protected by wooden bars, where the muezzin (crier who makes the Islamic call to prayer) made his way to the minaret.

[3] A copy of the mosque Mihrab (prayer niche) made with iron reinforced concrete has been re-erected near the minaret.

[4] The structure of the minaret tower consists of a free standing cylindrical base, conical transition and a polygonal upper part.
