OLD KASBAH
Go there and contact
A site, with the remains of an ancient kasbah, commemorating the disaster caused by the 1960 earthquake in Agadir
All that remains of the city before the earthquake are the moving ruins of the kasbah. Walking along what is today a vast, bare esplanade where goats graze, you can make out in places the foundations of the old kasbah, built in 1540 to resist the Portuguese, and once teeming with life. The only vestige is the gateway, which bears a Flemish inscription dating from 1745: "Fear God and honor your king", a reminder of the presence of the Dutch trading post. From the top of the hill, the view over the whole bay is breathtaking.
