Dar Soltane
The living memory of Safi
Dar Soltan "The House of the Sultan" is a citadel whose origin dates back to the Almohad period (XII XIII centuries), it served as protection for the city because of its position.
Over the centuries, the monument has undergone renovations and redevelopments. Between 1508 and 1541, the Portuguese provided it with a large tower engraved with the coat of arms of Portuguese king Emmanuel 1st (currently called Borj Dar).
The site enjoys a panorama over the city and particularly over the cascade of houses in the medina, descending towards the Castle of the Sea and the Ocean.
Currently, the monument houses the National Museum of Ceramics.
