Nedroma

Nedroma is a city in Tlemcen Province, Algeria. Once the capital of Trara, it was built on the ruins of a Berber town by Abd al-Mu'min the Almohad caliph in the 12th century AD. The city is distinguished by its long Islamic history, as it was the center of many Andalusian families after the fall of Andalusia. The city includes many monuments such as the walls of the Kasbah and the Great Mosque, which is one of the most important landmarks of the city.
