Al-Askari Shrine, the 'Askariyya Shrine (Arabic: مرقد ٱلإمامين علي ٱلهادي وٱلحسن ٱلعسكري, Marqad al-ʾImāmayn ʿAlīy al-Hādī wal-Ḥasan al-ʿAskarīy, meaning "Resting Place of the Two Imams Ali al-Hadi and Hassan the al-Askari") or the Al-Askari Mosque is a Shia Muslim mosque and mausoleum in the Iraqi city of Samarra 125 km (78 mi) from Baghdad.
It is one of the most important Shia shrines in the world. It was built in 944. The dome was destroyed in a bombing by extremists in February 2006 and its two remaining minarets were destroyed in another bombing in June 2007. The remaining clock tower was also destroyed in July 2007. The dome and minarets were repaired and the mosque reopened in April 2009 (from Wikipedia).
