Andalusian Mosque, Mosque in the Andalous district of Fez, Morocco.
The structure features a large northern portal decorated with multicolored tiles and a white minaret adorned with dark green faience on the right bank of the river.
Built between 859 and 860 under the Idrisid dynasty by Mariyam al Fihriya, this mosque initially served as an oratory before its expansion by the Almohads.
The sanctuary includes seven doors, with Bab Lahfa being the most notable, characterized by its cedar wood decorations and ironwork craftsmanship.
Access to the mosque is through R'enneh square or Bab Ftouh, but entry is restricted to individuals of Muslim faith.
The mosque preserves a wooden pulpit from 980 and contains a library along with a fountain in the center of its marble and onyx courtyard.
