The first Koutoubia was inaugurated in 1157 and the second and the minaret were built a year later by order of Abdelmoumen. The two sanctuaries are distinguished by their innovative plan giving you a capital importance to the wall of the qibla (orientation of the prayer). Marking the landscape of its presence, the minaret erected in stone, with a height of 77 m, allows the use of a ramp to reach its summit.

Some of them will be a source of inspiration for the other cities of the kingdom. Bab Agnaou: door of the "ram without horns", so named after having lost the two towers which composed it. It was built in Guéliz stone, a gray blue, which has now become rather red due to the action of the winds bringing sand from the desert. It is the main entrance to the Kasbah. Bab Er-Robb: ocher-red in color, this door called "grape juice" was used as a control at the entrance of alcoholic beverages. Bab El Khemis: giving access to the souk of the same name (meaning Thursday due to market day at the time)
