One of the most spectacular monuments in Marrakesh and one of the most beautiful mosques in the western Muslim world. Marked by a complex history, it is actually a double sanctuary with a minaret. The first Koutoubia was inaugurated in 1157 and the second one and the minaret were built a year later on the initiative of Abdelmoumen. The two sanctuaries are distinguished by the T-plan which gave great importance to the wall of the qibla (orientation of the prayer). Outlined against the landscape, the 77-m ashlar minaret has a ramp which leads to the top.
Soberly decorated with carvings and white and green tiles on the upper parts of the facade and the pinnacle.
