Souq el-Ghizal mosque (later cathedral, Notre-Dame des Sept Douleurs), Constantine, Algeria (retouched)
Architecture Library, Hesburgh Libraries
The Souq el-Ghizal, or Souk El Ghezal, or Souk el Rezel, mosque was originally built in 1730 but was enlarged and turned into a cathedral, Notre-Dame des Sept Douleurs, the seat of the bishop in Constantine. The cathedral was converted back into a mosque in 1962, after independence.
