Al-Mohammadi Mosque, Religious monument in Casablanca, Morocco.
Al-Mohammadi Mosque is a house of worship in Casablanca that displays Moroccan and Moorish architectural features. Its structure is decorated with patterned tiles, horseshoe arches, ornamental details, and geometric designs throughout.
The building was commissioned by Sultan Mohammed V in 1936 during a period of significant architectural growth in Morocco. It reflects the important construction developments of the early twentieth century in the country.
The mosque stands in the Habous district and serves as a central meeting place where locals gather for prayer and community events. It remains an important social hub for religious practice and neighborhood connections.
When visiting, wear modest clothing and note the separate entrances for men and women. Entry is free, but there are specific access rules during prayer times.
A major renovation in 2007 preserved the original architectural details while adding modern facilities inside. This allows the building to accommodate more worshippers while keeping its traditional appearance intact.
