About

This Almohad-era mosque was built in 1156 in honour of the dynasty’s strict spiritual leader, Mohammed ibn Tumart, and it a remains an architectural wonder. The mosque is still used for Friday prayers, but on other days the guardian will usher you through its massive doors and rose-coloured archways into the serene prayer hall. The intricate geometry of the carved cedar ceilings has been preserved through painstaking restoration, and the soaring keyhole archways give a sense of solidity and grace.
