EDITORS COMMENTS
Bordj Bou-Nafa: A Snapshot of Fez's Past Amidst the Ruins of a 1912 Powder Store This evocative photograph captures the damage inflicted upon Bordj Bou-Nafa, an ancient powder store in the heart of Fez (Fes), Morocco, during the tumultuous events of 1912. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of this North African city. The crenellated walls of the powder store, once a vital defensive structure, now bear the scars of bombardment. The trees lining the road leading to the store add a touch of serenity amidst the chaos, their branches reaching out as if to shelter the damaged building. The surrounding buildings, with their intricate architectural details, stand as silent witnesses to the past. The year 1912 marked a pivotal moment in Moroccan history, as the country experienced a series of riots against the French protectorate. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the turmoil that once shook the streets of Fez. The powder store, a symbol of the city's past, now stands as a testament to the resilience of its people and the enduring spirit of this historic city. Bordj Bou-Nafa, with its timeworn charm and history etched into its walls, continues to captivate visitors to Fez. This image invites us to reflect on the past, appreciate the present, and look forward to the future of this remarkable North African city.
