INSIDE THE PORTUGUESE FORT OF EL JADIDA / CITÉ PORTUGAISE MOROCCO / UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE
Alright guys, today I am showing you the Cité Portugaise, the Portuguese town / fort here in El Jadida, which is kind of like the main reason why people come here to this city.
The original name of the city in the Berber language was: Maziɣen / Mazighen, which means “The Berbers“.
The design of the Fortress of Mazagan is a response to the development of modern artillery in the Renaissance.[19] The star form of the fortress measures c 250m by 300m.[20] The slightly inclined, massive walls are c 8m high on average, with a thickness of 10m, enclosing a patrolling peripheral walkway 2m wide. At the present time the fortification has four bastions: the Angel Bastion in the east, St Sebastian in the north, St Antoine in the west, and the Holy Ghost Bastion in the south. The fifth, the Governor’s Bastion at the main entrance, is in ruins, having been destroyed by the Portuguese in 1769. Numerous colonial-era Portuguese cannons are still positioned on top of the bastions.
