“…On leur doit plusieurs casernes de janissaires, Le père a à son actif l'édification de la porte de la Mer Bāb al Baḥr. Cette famille va également apporter sa contribution dans l'édification de forteresses, puisque le frère cadet Ibrāhīm al-Thaghrî ben Mūsā, qui porta le titre de maitre maçon (m‛allam al-bannâ‛īn) (Chergui, 2009) dirigea au niveau du port les travaux de construction du fort Burj Al Sardīn en 1077/1666-1667, ordonné par Aḥmad Bāshā (Devoulx, 1873).…”

“…Longeant le pourtour de l'île de la Marine, ils communiquent entre eux et forment, juxtaposés les uns aux autres, une seule entité fortifiée. L'apport des maitres-maçons morisques dans l'architecture militaire et civile (Chergui, 2009) d'Alger a été marquant. Ceux-ci ont modelé la ville et ses structures défensives de façon remarquable.…”

Military architecture and defensive typologies of Algiers between the sixteenth and the nineteenth centuriesIn the Ottoman regency, the fortifications of Algiers evolve according to the politico-economic growth experienced by the city partly thanks to the development of the maritime piracy and the lusts it entails. Its stranglehold on the sea, arouses many projects of punitive expeditions. The construction of fortifications is then the major concern of its new leaders who between the sixteenth and the seventeenth centuries, fortify the city, its bay and the hinterland. These efforts develop over the three centuries of the Ottoman regency, a singular military architecture for the city of Algiers. The sixteenth century sees, a medieval reminiscence with the first fortifications, then, with the presence of Christians, a western influence the seventeenth century and the arrival of the Moriscos, brings a second breath to this defensive typology which is defined as a local style between domestic and military architecture. The question is: why Algiers has developed a particular defensive typology while the modernization of the artillery had led to an internationalization of the defensive system.

“…The Ottoman Regency's capital, Algiers (figure 1), had a remarkable social diversity in the 16th century. Local citizens coexisted with Janissaries and Christian captives from Europe, as well as Moriscos, who had been forced out of Spain [1] [2]. The Ottoman authorities constructed the first buildings in the lower part of Medina with the help and participation of this cosmopolitan population.…”

Vegetal Ornamentation on Marble in the ‎Ottoman Palace, Aziza Bey of Algiers: An Identification of the Artistic Origin

Identifier l'origine artistique de l'ornementation végétale sur marbre caractérisant le palais Aziza Bey est devenue un enjeu important dans une recherche sur l'architecture ottomane à Alger. Ce palais, dont la construction remonte au XVIe siècle , représente un merveilleux héritage architectural d'une époque bien connue pour les échanges culturels entre les deux rives de la Méditerranée. Suivant une approche originale, cette étude vise à apporter une réponse à cette question à l'aide de l'observation, de la littérature et de la numérisation (photogrammétrie, CAO). Nous nous sommes concentrés sur l'ornementation végétale de quelques portes et encadrements de fenêtres en marbre à l'intérieur du palais afin de les interpréter selon deux contextes complémentaires : métaphysique et paramétrique. Cette recherche a révélé des résultats totalement inédits concernant l'origine orientale de l'ornementation florale, spécifiquement anatolienne, composée de Rumi et Hatayi. De plus, l’origine occidentale des ornements de fruits, de fleurs et de feuillages est spécifique à la Renaissance italienne. Ces deux registres se caractérisent par des expressions symboliques très significatives pour chaque culture.

This article deals more particularly with the architectural reconstitution and the hydraulic checking of the rainwater harvesting system (RWH-system) installation in some residential buildings in Ottoman Algiers (16th to 18th centuries), where this water was intended for various domestic uses. This work was applied to two cases (Khdawedj-El'Amia and HassanPasha palaces). An architectural reconstitution by three-dimensional modeling was made based on investigations and bibliographic research on the system. In contrast, hydraulic verification was made according to the current European sizing standards based on rainfall records for over 100 years. The results indicate that these buildings are equipped with an innovative and efficient hydraulic system based on relativity between rain, roof, and stored volume (djeb), according to current standards; this system has the potential to meet the needs of the populations and ensure their water autonomy, particularly in times of water scarcity. And consequently, rainwater management in a secure way. On the other hand, the results assess the possibility of returning the RWH system to function today. It provides helpful information to develop an action plan and intervention strategies for restoring the (RWHsystem) in the heritage residential buildings for improving sustainability and maintaining the built heritage values of the historic Ottoman Algiers.
