The Great Mosque of Sfax is the foremost mosque of old Sfax, Tunisia, erected in the mid-ninth century during the Aghlabid dynasty. Serving as the urban and religious center of the city, it underwent substantial modifications across subsequent periods. The structure is architecturally distinguished by its minaret and its unusually ornate eastern façade, exemplifying Islamic architectural traditions. The mosque holds status as a listed monument of Tunisia.
