| The ramparts of the Medina of Salé are among the oldest defence works of Morocco. |
The ramparts are flanked by towers and punctuated by urban gates in the pure tradition of the medieval enclosures of the Moslem occident.
Its principal gates are: Bab Maalaq, Bab Jdid, Bab sidi Bou Haja (in the south) Bab Ferran giving access to the old arsenal (Dar es -Sanaa), Bab Fez also called Bab Khmiss, Bab sebta, and Bab Chaafa. These two last ensured the communication of the city with its back country. |
