In front of the ribat, the Great Mosque clearly displays its Fatimid origins (11th century). With its massive architecture and lack of minaret, it was originally used as a fortress. Built under Emir El Mociz ibn Badis, it was enlarged several times, notably by the Zirids in the 11th century. The minaret was added during the Hafsid period. One of its distinctive features is the absence of a dome over the mihrab, which is rare in medieval Ifriqiyan architecture.
