المنشآت المعمارية المدنية للباي مصطفي بوشلاغم المسراتي بمدينة وهران

Abstract EN

The theme of architecture during the Ottoman era in general, and civil architecture in Algeria in particular, is of considerable importance in the field of archaeological and architectural research.

Accordingly, we study through this research the remaining civil constructions attributed to one of the most important beys of Oran, the Bey Mustapha Bouchlagham El-Misrati, the first to liberate Oran from the Spanish occupation, which ruled Oran for nearly a quarter of a century.

Our study of these constructions is an archaeological study in the first place that depends mainly on the field side and the descriptive approach.

For the first time, we deal in detail with the achievements of Bey Bouchlagham in the architectural field, particularly with regard to the Bey's palace in the Casbah and his residence and the bath adjoining his palace.

As a result, these constructions did not differ in their architectural and artistic characteristics from their counterparts in the rest of the cities of Algeria during the same period.
