Borj Eddar la kechla or barracks

The imposing walls of this citadel date back to the Portuguese occupation between 1508 and 1514, as evidenced by the coat of arms of King Emmanuel I engraved on one of the citadel's towers. An imposing monumental gate leads directly to a vast platform decorated with old cannons, as well as a magnificent semi-circular tower offering a panoramic view of the city of Safi. This view notably includes its port, its medina, the R'bat minaret and the Potters' Hill.
