Hassan Pasha Mosque
The Hassan Pasha Mosque (Arabic: مسجد حسن الباشا, romanized: Masjid Hassan el-Basha), also referred to as the Pasha Mosque or the Oran Grand Mosque, is a mosque located in Oran, Algeria.
The mosque was built in 1796 by order of Baba Hassan, Pasha of Algiers, in memory of the expulsion of the Spanish. During the Invasion of Algiers in 1830, French soldiers occupied the mosque and it was used as their living-quarters. In 1835, after the French invasion, the building was restored as a mosque and renovated during the 1860s. In 1952, the mosque was listed as a historic monument; and in 2010, the mosque-monument was closed to the public.
