Hassan Bek Mosque
מסגד חסן בק
An Ottoman-era mosque completed in 1916 beside the seaside promenade. Its white minaret is a landmark between Jaffa and Tel Aviv.
Hassan Bek Mosque was built in 1916 in the Manshiyya neighborhood by Hassan Bek, the Ottoman governor of Jaffa. Built of limestone, its slender white minaret stands out along the seafront. After 1948, the surrounding neighborhood was demolished, and the mosque now stands alone on the southern seafront of Tel Aviv, beside Dolphinarium Beach and Charles Clore Park. It remains an active place of Muslim worship. Non-Muslim visitors can usually enter outside prayer times. They must wear long sleeves and long trousers, women must cover their hair, and shoes must be removed. From the seaside promenade, it is about a 15-minute walk south to Old Jaffa, so it pairs well with a visit to the beaches and Jaffa.
