Borj Touil:
Borj Touil « the tall tower » is constructed by the Saadian Sultan Al-Mansour in the 16th century, in order to strengthen the perimeter wall of Fez-Jdid. This tower took its name from the neighbourhood where it is.
And because the principal weapons which were used a lot in the Saadian era were the cannons, Borj Touil’s outer façade is pierced by large arched openings for cannons.
It has been recently restored thanks to the preservation of the Medina project.
