Technische Fakultät Prayer Room
FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg — Slots & Prayer Times
How the Slot System Works
The prayer room operates on a 15-minute rotating schedule, repeating every hour. Each slot gives one group dedicated, uninterrupted access.
Brothers — :00–:10 & :30–:40
10 minutes of dedicated access per half-hour
Sisters — :15–:25 & :45–:55
10 minutes of dedicated access per half-hour
No Entry — :10–:15, :25–:30, :40–:45, :55–:00
5-minute transition — no one enters, giving current occupants time to finish undisturbed
Sisters' time is strictly reserved. Even if no sisters are currently praying, brothers may not enter during a sisters' slot. This rule is non-negotiable and applies at all times.
Why We Use This System
Limited space. The room is small — simultaneous use is not practical. Timed slots ensure everyone gets orderly, fair access without overcrowding.
A safe space for sisters. Sisters deserve a private, comfortable environment to pray without concern. Dedicated slots guarantee that, without compromise.
Equal access for all. Both brothers and sisters receive equal, guaranteed prayer time — no group is marginalised or left waiting indefinitely.
15-minute slots rotate every quarter-hour
