No. 186

There are various symbols on doors in Essaouira signifying the religion or ethnicity of the residents. I don’t know what happened with this composition, but in both pictures I took of this interesting door the bottom is cut off, so there must have been a reason. This would appear to be an Arab house.

An old door from an abandoned Jewish house in the Mellah, posted earlier:
