Hassan II Tower

Rising above the historic skyline of Rabat, Hassan Tower is one of Morocco’s most iconic monuments and a powerful reminder of the city’s imperial past. Begun in the late 12th century as the minaret of an ambitious Almohad mosque, the tower was intended to form part of a vast religious complex that was never completed. Today, its striking red sandstone form and unfinished grandeur give it a singular presence, making it one of the most memorable landmarks in the Moroccan capital.  Known for its elegant proportions and enduring architectural beauty, Hassan Tower reflects the refinement of Almohad design.  As you walk through this historic setting, the tower feels both monumental and serene, linking Rabat’s royal, religious, and architectural heritage in one remarkable site.
