Al-Quds Mosque, Gothic mosque in Roches Noires, Casablanca, Morocco.

The Al-Quds Mosque exhibits Gothic architectural elements with high vaults, pointed arches, and European-influenced design features throughout its structure.

Originally constructed as the Church of Saint Margaret in 1920, the building underwent conversion to Al-Quds Mosque in 1981 during Hassan II's Moroccanization policies.

The transformation from church to mosque represents the religious evolution of Morocco and demonstrates the adaptability of sacred spaces across different faiths.

The mosque maintains regular prayer schedules from 4:00 AM to 11:00 PM, with separate entrance areas designated for men and women.

This religious building stands as the only mosque in the world constructed in pure Gothic architectural style, preserving its original European church design features.
