SIDI ABDERRAHMAN MAUSOLEUM
The mausoleum of the patron saint of the city, Sidi Abderrahmane, is made up of an el housing the tomb of the saint and a mosque built in 1697 on a more ancient site.
Born in 1437, Sidi Abderrahmane of the tribe Thaâliba is a revered scholar and theologian, founder of the Zaouïa Thaâlibiya offering various lessons. El, where a socket covered with silk fabrics contains the remains of the dead man in 1471, is covered with tiled tiles, verses of the Koran, ex: paintings, plaques, one of which would have been offered by Queen Victoria, who finally managed to fall pregnant after her visit. This sacred place is a haven of peace very appreciated by many women who are praying for the blessing of the holy man with whom it would suffice to make a vow that the couple problems settle, to find love or even to succeed in having a child. It is also a place where women of a certain age are looking for girls to marry for their sons or grandchildren because there are many girls there. So you will see a few women sitting around the mausoleum, discussing their love stories or a future marriage… The mosque is flanked by a beautiful quadrangular minaret, the top of which is made up of blue and white earthenware tiles of Persia and Rhodes. The water from the yard's fountain passes to be miraculous. Remember to déchausser before entering el.
