Poland has a small Muslim community estimated at approximately 0.1 percent of the population, numbering roughly 25,000 to 35,000 adherents. The community has a remarkable historical depth: the Lipka Tatars (Polish Tatars) settled in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from the late fourteenth century onward and have maintained continuous Muslim practice for over six centuries — among the oldest established Muslim communities in Europe outside Iberia and the Balkans. They are concentrated in the eastern Podlaskie Voivodeship (especially in the villages of Bohoniki and Kruszyniany, with their distinctive seventeenth- and eighteenth-century wooden mosques) alongside more recent Arab, Turkish, Bosnian, and Central Asian migrant communities in Warsaw, Kraków, and other major cities. The Bohoniki Mosque (1873) and the Kruszyniany Mosque (late 18th century), both wooden and on the European Cultural Heritage Routes, are among the oldest surviving Tatar mosques in continuous use. The Muslim Religious Union in the Republic of Poland (Muzułmański Związek Religijny w RP), founded in 1925, is the recognized authority. eSalah uses MWL default; Diyanet alternate.
