At Ramla, Baibars adds the eighty-nine foot- (twenty-seven meter-) tall minaret of the White Mosque, the so-called White Tower.
The minaret is to the north of the mosque structure, square in shape with five stories, each adorned with window niches, and a balcony towards the top.
The minaret is probably influenced by Crusader design, but it is constructed by the Mamluks.
