_Benediction Mosque (The Seven Mosques of Bani)

Information

The space is 11,5 x 8,7 m and 5 meter high. The minaret rises 12 meters above the ground.

The minaret appears to be in excellent condition from a distance because it is the most recently repaired mosque, but up close, that is only an illusion due to the roof’s damage, which also accounts for the interior’s poor condition.

The columns are in good condition, but the vaults are supported by wooden scaffolding. While eroding, exterior facades still retain their original shape, apertures, and even embellishments.
