Ben Youssef Mosque in Essaouira serves the old town's residents, a modest but historic mosque within the UNESCO-listed fortified medina, built during the same 18th-century period as the city's distinctive European-designed ramparts. It sits a short walk from the fishing port and Place Moulay Hassan, part of the compact web of streets that makes Essaouira's medina easy to explore on foot.
