The roots of the Deer Park Mosque date to the 1960s when the first Bosnian Muslims in Victoria gathered and established a multi-ethnic Islamic community in Carlton and Footscray. The Deer Park Mosque was built in 1993 as the religious focal point for the Bosnian community in Melbourne.
The Deer Park Mosque is one of the largest mosques in Australia.[citation needed]
