The 8 Best Sacred & Religious Sites in Rabat, Rabat-Sale-Zemmour-Zaer Region

October 24, 2021 Mollie Coke

Morocco's coastal capital since 1912, Rabat has just over a million people. Modern and even reserved by Moroccan standards, the city also has many fascinating historic sites, including the picturesque Kasbah of the Udayas, built in the mid-12th century. The unique Hassan Tower, begun at the end of the 12th century, was meant to have the world's largest minaret, but was never completed. Just opposite the tower lies the 20th-century Mausoleum of Mohammed V, another of the city's main attractions.

Hassan Tower

The unfinished minaret surrounded by two hundred columns is Rabat's most famous monument.

Reviewed By dennism259 - Salado, United States

The Hassan Tower and Mohamed V Mausoleum in Rabat, Morocco are the last two building projects of Sultan Yacoub al Mansour. He died during construction of the mosque and it was never finished. You can look at the mosques he built in Andalusia, Spain to get a feel for what it would have looked like. The minaret is only half as tall as planned and many of the columns have decayed, but it’s still impressive. Several pieces of the original 12th century wall remain. The roof was never installed which caused the decay. He is buried in the mausoleum across from the mosque.
