Not sure if they own logan street parking, but today the gate was open and several cars were parked there. There were no signs to state it was closed aside from a wilson sign on a wall - however the QR code next to the opening hours is linked to a completely different car park (so I was under the impression that logan street was still open). Returned to my car (car park was empty) and was told off by who i assume was the owner of the mosque. Very rude and abrupt.

Erected in 1888–89, it was designed to meet the spiritual needs of Muslim cameleers and traders coming in from work in South Australia’s northern regions. The mosque in Adelaide was preceded by two earth-walled and thatch-roofed mosques constructed by cameleers in Hergott Springs (Marree). These open buildings, next to pools for washing prior to prayer, reflected those in the places of origin of the cameleers – Afghanistan, Baluchistan and northwest India (now part...
