The Agadir Of Amtoudi, An Ancient Fortified Berber Granary, Has Stood Resilient In Morocco's Mountains For Over 800 Years
Built by the Amazigh people, these remarkable structures stored grain, oil, and valuables, safe from raids and harsh elements.
Perched on a rugged hill with thick stone walls, watchtowers, and narrow entrances, it served not just as a storage facility but as a community center—an enduring symbol of Berber resilience and ingenuity. Each storage room bore unique family symbols, accessed by ladders to retrieve family stores. Can you imagine climbing up to get your stash?
Witnessing history still alive in these ancient granaries is simply amazing!
