Post a Review
This 12th-century mosque is also called the Kasbah Mosque and the Yacoub El Mansour Mosque. But mostly it's known as the Mosquée Aux Pommes D'Or (Mosque of the Golden Apples), because of the three gilded globes (legend says they are made of gold) on the lantern of one its gorgeous minaret. The mosque was restored twice, once in the 16th century and once in the 18th century. This is a working mosque, and it's closed to non-Muslims.
