The attractive Dany Chamoun Square, also known as al-Midan, is named after the younger son of former President Camille Chamoun; both father and son were born in Deir el-Qamar.

The fountain dates from the 19th century and was used as a water source for travelers.

Located on the corner of the square is the the Fakhr el-Dine Maan Mosque. Dating from 1493, it was built over a Mamluk structure.

In 1630, a severe earthquake slightly displaced the minaret, as can still be seen.
