Great Mosque Kairouan Facts photo copyrighted by: Brian McMorrow As the city expanded during the following three hundred years, the original mosque was
torn down and rebuilt in 703, again in 774, and then significantly enlarged by rulers of
the Aghlabid dynasty in 836 and 863.
Kairouan grew in size and beauty and no where was this more evident than in the
construction and continuing elaboration of its Great Mosque.
