Al Haram Architectural Model

About the Al Haram Architectural Model

The Al Haram Architectural Model by MiniatureArt is intended to present the holiest site in the Islamic world in a respectful and easily understood way. Masjid al-Haram in Mecca surrounds the Kaaba and is regarded as the holiest mosque in Islam. As the centre of the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages, it also encloses the Black Stone, the Zamzam Well and the hills of Safa and Marwa. You can read more about Masjid al-Haram on Wikipedia.

Describing the layout of a place where millions come to pray is rarely enough in words alone. Our model reproduces the courtyard and arcades around the Kaaba at scale, making it easier to see how the circumambulation area is formed and how the arcades enclose the courtyard. This can be especially valuable for people preparing for their first pilgrimage.

For sensitive subjects like this, we use durable polyurethane and resin and treat every detail carefully with hand painting. Optional lighting helps the courtyard and arcades stand out. An Al Haram Architectural Model can be a meaningful exhibit in Hajj and Umrah training centres, museums, religious and cultural exhibitions, or the offices of travel organisations.

To see the wider development around the mosque, you may also want to explore our Al Haram Expanding Project. Viewed together, the two models make the relationship between the present-day site and its planned growth much clearer. This makes the pair particularly useful for education programmes.
