St. Andrew's Church
What the experts agree on
St. Andrew's Church is a striking architectural oddity where Anglican tradition meets Moroccan design—featuring Arabic inscriptions of the Lord's Prayer and Koranic verses within Moorish-style walls, famously painted by Matisse.
“St Andrew's Church is one of the more charming oddities of Tangier...the interior of this Anglican church is decorated in high Fassi style, with the Lord’s Prayer in Arabic over the altar.”
