Bab Magana:

Bab Magana « the watch gate » was given such name because of the clock which is still hanged above the gate entrance, but no longer runs as it is broken.
The gate is an angled gate, decorated with simple engravings and “L” shaped. It was built during the erection of the Mellah neighbourhood in the 13th century, as it was its main entrance. The gate stays one of the landmarks of the Mellah neighbourhood.
