Mausoleum of Sidi Abderrahmane Et-Thaalibi, Islamic shrine in Casbah of Algiers, Algeria.

The mausoleum features a Maghrebi-style dome structure built within the lower section of the Casbah, incorporating traditional North African architectural elements.

The Ottoman authorities commissioned the construction of this mausoleum in 1611 to house the remains of Sidi Abderrahmane et-Thaalibi, who died in 1471.

The mausoleum stands as part of a religious complex where people gather for education, prayer, and to maintain Islamic scholarly traditions.

Visitors can access the mausoleum through the narrow streets of the Casbah, with guided tours available to learn about its religious significance.

The tomb's design mirrors architectural elements found in both Tlemcen and Fez, demonstrating the connection between different Maghreb regions.
