World Heritage Committee Description:

The Kasbah is a unique kind of medina, or Islamic city. It stands in one of the finest coastal sites on the Mediterranean, overlooking the islands where a Carthaginian trading-post was established in the 4th century BC. There are the remains of the citadel, old mosques and Ottoman-style palaces as well as the remains of a traditional urban structure associated with a deep-rooted sense of community.
城堡是典型的麦地那式（medina）或伊斯兰建筑风格的古城，位于阿尔及尔，是地中海最美的海滨城市之一，对面的岛屿曾是迦太基人公元前四世纪建立的贸易港。城内不仅有要塞、古清真寺和土耳其风格宫殿遗址，还有传统城市的踪迹，体现了深厚的社区生活特色。
