Kasbah Boulaouane

It is situated on the rock which sits at the curve of Oum Er-Rbia River, overlooking the surrounding area.

[1] In the 20th century, an orientalist Edmond Doutté had provided a detailed description for the kasbah.

It is considered among tens of other kasbahs built during the era of the Alaouite sultan Ismail Ibn Sharif as a local center for administration.

There had been a long tradition among the Maghrebi dynasties such Almoravid, Almohad, Marinid and Saadi to construct kasbahs as fortifications, and this is considered another addition by the Alaouite Sultan.

The restoration has been conducted along with the overhauling of the surrounding area into a tourist spot, by arranging the infrastructure.
