In spite of Islam's long history in Europe and the growing number of Muslims resident in Europe, little research exists on Muslim pilgrimage in Europe.

This collection of eleven chapters is the first systematic attempt to fill this lacuna in an emerging research field.

Placing the pilgrims' practices and experiences centre stage, scholars from history, anthropology, religious studies, sociology, and art history examine historical and contemporary hajj and non-hajj pilgrimage to sites outside and within Europe.

Sources include online travelogues, ethnographic data, biographic information, and material and performative culture.
