Bab Al-Atlal: Remembering Through Debris

Bab Al-Atlal is a memorial landscape, a public space on the footprint of the former Grand Serail of Aleppo. We argue against the reconstruction of the Serail, as an act to remember the immeasurable loss of life, property, and social and cultural capital in Aleppo and Syria at large. In this proposal, debris from destruction is the locus of collective memory.

Aleppo: a Tangible Heritage

Through the complete removal of the Grand Serail, the re-programming of the Justice Palace, and the implementation of the Placemaking theory, the space at the foot of the citadel becomes a place of memorialization of heritage, of celebration and honor for the lost souls during the war, and a place for everyday rituals and activities to occur.
