Salah Bey ben Mostefa (Arabic: صالح باي; 1725–1792), was the bey of the Beylik of Constantine in the Deylik of Algiers from 1771 to 1792. Salah Bey's governance is marked by a victorious participation against the Invasion of Algiers (1775) during the Spanish–Algerian War (1775–1785) and his works of urban planning in Constantine. An example of remaining construction from his era is Bab El Kantra Bridge.
