The “El Guergarate” mosque opened its doors, on Wednesday, and received the first worshippers on the occasion of the advent of the month of Ramadan.
The mosque’s building works were kicked off two years ago. The prayer site is near the El Guergarate crossing point.
The building stretches over 3,767 square meters. It comprises places for prayer for men and women, a minaret, areas for ablutions and a house for Imam (religious leader).
The facility illustrates the urbanization dynamic in El Guergarate and Bir Gandouz commune, under the Aousserd province.
