Essaouira’s current layout can be traced back to 1765. That year, the town’s local ruler captured a French ship and hired one of its passengers, who was an architect, to rebuild his port. He had the city surrounded with a heavy defensive wall, much of which still stands today. The most impressive stretch is the Skala de la Ville, where you can go for a walk along the top of the ramparts and examine several of the ancient cannons in the area.
