Bab Lakssour stands as a wide, gated entryway built of rough, sun-baked earth, marked by a massive, central horseshoe arch that pierces the thick city wall. It served as a vital portal connecting the interior of the Medina to the bustling trade routes outside. Local records tell of a time when the gate keepers strictly enforced evening curfews, locking travelers and traders out once the sun vanished behind the Atlas Mountains, forcing them to spend the night in the shadows of the ramparts.
