This book proposes to study the mutation of the architecture of the mosques in the region of Gabes in the country of Tunisia. This architecture has undergone several spatial, morphological, and aesthetic transformations over time and depending on its location, many phenomena have affected the spiritual place of the mosque since independence namely aesthetic improvement, segregation and appropriation. These transformations which modified the architecture of the mosque were stimulated by political, cultural and social upheavals which affected the society after the independence of the country, the revolution also carried religious ideological disorders, which generated the birth of the exaggerated religious currents which modified the spatiality of the mosques by converting thus the spiritual values.
