科特迪瓦北部的苏丹式清真寺

这8座小型土坯清真寺分别位于腾格雷拉省、库托省、索罗邦戈省、萨马蒂吉拉省、姆本格省、孔格省和卡瓦拉省。这些清真寺的特点包括外突的木杆，顶部带有陶器或鸵鸟蛋装饰的垂直扶壁，以及锥形宣礼塔。它们展示了一种特有的建筑风格，据信该风格起源于14世纪前后马里帝国的杰内城（Djenné），该国因与北非的跨撒哈拉沙漠的盐与黄金贸易而兴盛。尤其自16世纪以来，这种风格从沙漠地区向南传播到苏丹大草原。为了适应当地更潮湿的气候，建筑高度降低，并出现了更坚固的支撑。上世纪初科特迪瓦有数百座类似风格的清真寺，仅有20座留存至今，遗产地由其中保存最为完好的8座组成。这些清真寺具有独特的苏丹风格，为西非萨瓦纳地区所特有。伴随着商人和学者从马里帝国向南扩散，将跨撒哈拉的商贸路线延伸到了森林地区，这种风格在17-19世纪间发展起来。它们是促进了伊斯兰教和伊斯兰文化发展的跨撒哈拉贸易的重要见证，体现了伊斯兰建筑和当地建筑形式的融合，其风格极为独特，经久不衰。

The eight small adobe mosques, at Tengréla, Kouto, Sorobango, Samatiguila, M’Bengué, Kong and Kaouara are characterized by protruding timbers, vertical buttresses crowned by pottery or ostrich eggs, and tapering minarets. They present an interpretation of an architectural style thought to have originated around the 14th century in the town of Djenné, then part of the Empire of Mali, which prospered from the trade in gold and salt across the Sahara to North Africa. Particularly from the 16th century, the style spread south from the desert regions into the Sudanese savannah, becoming lower and developing stouter buttresses in response to the wetter climate. The mosques are the best conserved of 20 such edifices that remain in Côte d’Ivoire, where hundreds existed early last century. The mosques’ distinctive Sudanese style, specific to the savannah region of West Africa, developed between the 17th and 19th centuries as traders and scholars spread south from the Empire of Mali, extending the trans-Saharan mercantile routes into the forest area. They present highly important testimonies to the trans-Saharan trade that facilitated the expansion of Islam and Islamic culture and reflect a fusion of Islamic and local architectural forms in a highly distinctive style that has persisted over time.
