About this asset
The elaborately carved minaret and arabesque-decorated dome of Al-Mursi Abu Al-Abbas Mosque photographed against a vivid blue sky in the Bahri district of Alexandria, Egypt. The mosque, originally built in the 13th century and reconstructed in 1943, is dedicated to the Andalusian Sufi saint Abu Al-Abbas Al-Mursi and is one of the most significant Islamic landmarks in Alexandria. The limestone facade features intricate geometric and floral carvings characteristic of Mamluk-influenced North African Islamic architecture.
