The prayer hall is off-axis with respect to the mihrab nave. This is because a nave on the north side was removed during urban restorations done during the French occupation in the middle of the 19th century. Although it’s possible that the position of the minaret is original, both the facade and the minaret are from this time period. It has a square base with a tapered circular lantern. Due to the mosque’s placement in the souks region, the facade is distinguished by a lower floor that is home to stores.
Due to renovation work, the mosque was off-limits to the public between 2014 and 2017.
