Description

La mosquée de Tinmel a été édifiée dans la région du Haut-Atlas à la mêmoire de Mehdi IBN TOUMERT fondateur de la dynastie Almohade (XIIème siècle). Cette mosquée a été construite selon un procédé Andalou Maghrébin qui allie le raffinement de la tradition architecturale et les techniques de construction locale.
