Djamaa al-Djedid, Ottoman mosque in Casbah of Algiers, Algeria.
The mosque displays a central dome reaching 24 meters in height, supported by four pillars through a drum and pendentives system.
Built in 1660 by Ottoman governor al-Hajj Habib, the structure survived French colonial modifications of the Algiers waterfront during the 19th century.
The mosque combines Ottoman, North African, and European architectural elements, featuring Italian marble in the minbar and an Andalusian-style mihrab arch.
Non-Muslim visitors can access the mosque outside prayer times with a local guide, entering through entrances on the place or rampart steps.
The structure measures 27 meters in width and 48 meters in length, with its minaret currently standing at 25 meters due to street elevation changes.
