This mosque is one of the few that can be visited in Morocco by non-Muslims. Its history is linked to that of the tiny town of Tinmel, which in the 12th and 13th centuries became the cradle of the Almohad dynasty.
From this small village in the N'fis valley, unknown until the end of the 11th century, set out the Almohad conquerors, led by the spiritual guide Ibn Toumert then by the great conqueror Abd al-Moumen Ibn Ali, to conquer from Morocco.
