HASSAN NASR ALLAH MOSQUE

The building is named after a high-ranking Mamluk dignitary who received his religious education in the mosque of Sultan Hassan in Cairo. He was buried in 1424 in the capital's northern Mamluk cemetery. The mosque was built during his lifetime and restored in 1703. The main portal, formed of three brick arches, is typical of the religious architecture of the Nile Delta region. The minaret is the only element of its architecture in the Mamluk style.
