Abstract
The article considers the role of Odessa as a key transport hub in the pilgrimage route of Russian Muslims. The infrastructure of the Hajj industry was formed in Odessa throughout the 19th – early 20th centuries and had an influence on the formation of the local Muslim community, what article shows. The pilgrimage infrastructure of Odessa, formed in the pre-revolutionary period, was used in the Soviet era to carry out the Hajj of 1927. It had a generally beneficial efect on the policy of the Soviet government towards pilgrims.
