Designed in the Moorish style, this gate has marked the domain of the tanners. The complex S- shaped gate was built by the Almoravids but rebuilt many times. For thousands of years, tanners in this neighborhood have been using the same technique. Skins are immersed in tanks and unfortunately give off an odor that matches the vividness of the dyes.
