Great Mosque (Rabat)
The Great Mosque of the medina of Rabat, also known as the el-Kharrazin Mosque, is the largest Friday mosque within the historic Andalusian medina of Rabat in Morocco. The mosque is located at the intersection of the streets of Souk Sebbat and Rue Bab Chellah.
The mosque was originally built in the Marinid period in the late 13th or early 14th century, but it has been reconstructed and restored many times since. An extensive restoration took place in 1882, and the current minaret was built in 1939.
The mosque covers an area of about 1800 square meters and its minaret has a height of 33.15 meters. The mosque has six gates and follows a traditional layout for Moroccan mosques.
