The Kasbah Mosque is next to Bab Agnaou, one of the main city gates. Both were built in the late 12th century during the Almohad dynasty. They were commissioned by Sultan Abu Yusuf Yaqub al-Mansur. He was the Caliph of Morocco from 1184 – 1199. This former royal mosque is also called Moulay el Yazid. Although non-Muslims are prohibited from entering this place of worship, you can visit the adjacent Saadian Tombs.
