The Grand Mosque of Oujda stands as the city's principal place of worship, its minaret and ornate facade dominating the skyline. Visitors approach through a bustling square, then enter a peaceful courtyard adorned with traditional zellij tilework and carved stucco. The prayer hall, though off-limits to non-Muslims, can be glimpsed from the entrance, revealing rows of arches and chandeliers. This mosque is not only a spiritual center but also a testament to Oujda's long history as a crossroads of culture and trade.
