Route
The Citadel is the heart of the Casbah, the ancient fortress that once served as the residence of the Ottoman rulers and a military stronghold. Perched at the highest point of the old city, it offers panoramic views over Algiers and the Mediterranean Sea. Visitors can explore its fortified walls, gates, towers, and inner courtyards while learning about its role in defending the city and its transformation during French colonization. The Citadel also preserves traces of palaces, mosques, and hammams that reflect the Ottoman architectural legacy.
Step back in time as you explore the maze of narrow streets in the Casbah of Algiers, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Wander through its winding alleys lined with whitewashed houses, colorful doors, and hidden courtyards. Along the way, experience the charm of local life, traditional crafts, and breathtaking views of the city and sea. A unique journey into the heart of Algiers’ history and culture!
Dar Mustapha Pacha is one of the finest examples of Ottoman palace architecture in the Casbah. Built in the 18th century for the Ottoman ruler Mustapha Pacha, this residence combines elegance and refinement, with ornate tile work, carved wooden ceilings, marble fountains, and inner courtyards filled with light. Visitors can wander through its grand halls and intimate rooms while learning about the lifestyles of the Ottoman elite and the blending of Arab, Berber, and Mediterranean artistic influences. Today, it often hosts cultural exhibitions and art events.

About Algiers
Algiers rises in white terraces above a wide Mediterranean bay, with an Ottoman-era Casbah, French colonial boulevards and a vast modern mosque.
Algiers is the capital and largest city of Algeria, built on steep hills that fall to the sea. Its old quarter, the Casbah, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site of stepped lanes and courtyard houses, with the Ketchaoua Mosque near its foot. Below it, boulevards from the French period face the harbour, and the Grande Poste, a white building in Neo-Moorish style, is one of the best-known landmarks.
