Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- Preserve the courtyard arches
Rows of arches and slender vertical supports line the courtyard. Use Print friendly for small prints, or increase the print size to retain these openings and supports in Full detail.
- Keep the roofline details distinct
Small repeating projections edge the roof, and a dome rises in the courtyard. A larger print with 0.12–0.16 mm layers helps keep the roofline details and dome crisp.
- One piece with the ground
The Mosque of Ibn Tulun is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.

About the Mosque of Ibn Tulun
The Mosque of Ibn Tulun stands in Islamic Cairo, Egypt. Ahmad ibn Tulun commissioned it for congregational worship in al-Qata'i, the administrative capital he established. Construction took place between 876 and 879 CE. Built of brick, it is Egypt's oldest well-preserved mosque. Its classical Abbasid design drew on ninth-century mosques in Samarra, Iraq, which served as the Abbasid capital during that period. The mosque also forms part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Roofed aisles with pointed arches frame a broad courtyard. Carved stucco decorates the arches, although some original ornament has been lost. The minaret stands within an outer enclosure called the ziyada and has a spiral staircase on its exterior. Sultan Lajin undertook a major restoration in 1296; the courtyard's fountain and the domed structure above it date from that work. After severe deterioration during the nineteenth century, further repairs followed. The ceiling was reconstructed in 1927, and damaged prayer-hall arches were rebuilt over the next two years.
