A real little marvel of sobriety in one color. With its square minarets, it is adorned with lattice work, which gives its cladding the appearance of lace paper, but also with semicircular arches above the entrance doors. The mosaic tiles that can be found inside were imported from Morocco, while the ironwork of the heavy wrought doors is from France.
At the back of the courtyard of the mosque is the tomb of the builder Balla Camara, known as “El Hadj Balla”, who went to Mecca before his death (“el Hadj”).
