The Hassan Pasha Mosque (Arabic: مسجد حسن الباشا, Masjid Hassan el-Basha), also referred to as the Pasha Mosque or the Grand Mosque, is a mosque located in Oran, Algeria. It was built in 1796[1][2] by order of Baba Hassan, Pasha of Algiers, in memory of the expulsion of the Spanish.[3] During the French Invasion of Algiers in 1830, French soldiers would occupy the mosque during their invasion of Algeria as their living-quarters.[4] 5 years after the French Invasion, in 1835, the building was established as a mosque and renovated three decades later.[5] In 1952, the mosque was listed as a historic monument.[5] Since 2010, this historic monument has been closed to the public.[6]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
