Al Jarina Mosque
This mosque today stands as a symbol of the Muslim presence in Haifa, which, like the city itself, has experienced the ebb and flow of fortune over the centuries. The Islamic Arab, Mamluk and Ottoman empires have all left their mark on the city. Al Jarina Mosque was apparently established in the 18th century with the founding of modern Haifa. Today, it stands isolated among modern office buildings, but until 1948 it was an important focus of Muslim life in Haifa.
