A preliminary Study of the Historic Buildings in Makkah and Jeddah

The Holy City of Makkah which lies inland 37 kilometers east of Jeddah, is situated on the

eastern shore of the Red Sea. Makkah is the place where the Prophet Muhammad, peace be

upon him, was born - the place where God's message was first revealed to him and the city

to which he returned after the migration to Madinah in 266 AD.

Makkah is the holiest city on earth to Muslims. Five times each day, the world's one billion

Muslims, wherever they may be, turn to the Holy City of Makkah to pray. And at least once

in their lives, all Muslims who are not prevented by personal circumstance perform

the Hajj, the pilgrimage to Makkah. Thus each year the Holy City of Makkah is host to

some two million hajjis (pilgrims) from all over the world.

In the holy city of Makkah are preserved many valuable historic buildings including

mosques, forts and palaces. There are a few historical palaces located in Jarwal area of

Makkah which are worth study from the conservation point of view. These palaces

represent a composite type of cultural heritage which is a unique in its own. Some of these

palaces represent a specific style found only in coral stone buildings of the western coast of

Jeddah and Yanbu where wooden mashrabiyas and AL-Arbta-ELkhashbiya (Timber ties) is

an essential part of the buildings. A preliminary study was conducted by Al-Turath to study

some of these historic monuments from the conservation point.

Hamed EL-Suliman Palace and Quwair Palace is among these historic moments.



MAKKAH AND JEDDAH

Historic Jeddah, the Gate to Makkah is listed on UNESCO world Heritage list in 6108 (ref

0720) The general strategy for the preservation and revitalization of the area is being

drawn by the Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage (SCTH) in

coordination with the Jeddah Municipality and the participation of the civil society.

Jeddah is also the gateway for Muslim pilgrims to Mecca who arrived by sea since the 3th

century AH when the 7rd Caliph Othman ibn Affan made it the official port of Makkah.

The city develop into a thriving multicultural center, characterized by a distinctive

architectural tradition, including tower houses built in the late 01th century by the city’s

mercantile elites.

Historic Jeddah is an outstanding reflection of the Red sea architectural tradition, a

construction style once common to cities on both coasts of the Red sea, built settlements

with specific and innovative technical and aesthetic solutions to cope with the extreme

climatic conditions of the region (humidity and heat).

The Al-Balad - historic part of Jeddah has great history, architectural qualities, typologies,

building materials, decorative pattern, homogeneity and the social and cultural qualities,

Historic Jeddah, the Gate to Makkah is a living urban environment primarily hosting

residential and commercial activities, with mosques and charitable structures. The property

represents an authentic and traditional urban environment where the headquarters of

century old economic enterprises.

The Al-Balad bears a significant testimony to a very specific cultural tradition and to a

living civilization. With its traditional mosques Masjide Al-Shaf’i, Masjide al-Mimar,

mosque of Usman bin Affan or masjide Al-Albanus and Mosque of Abu Anbah, large

houses Beit Nasif, BietZenal and Beit Noorwali, schools, charity houses (rabat) Rebat

Banajah-Hadhramouth, Rebat al-khanjiKabir and Saghir and Rebat Al- Maghrabi, trust

houses (waqf) historic land marks and springs (ayyun) e.g. AinQausiyah.

Methodology:

Conservation is a process of understanding, interpreting and managing of the architectural

heritage in order to protect it for the future generation.

During this training program participants will go through complete process of conservation

of the historic buildings, to be a precise delineation of what survives in terms of buildings

and urban plan, as a basis for integrity, and also for future protection and conservation,

and a clear understanding of the threshold beyond which integrity would no longer be

intact if further buildings were lost.

A Restoration Manual will be used as an integral part of any restoration process in historic

cities. The manual is a compilation of different technical process for the restoration of

buildings which includes static and preservation problems and its solution in a most

technical manner.

First part of this process includes following components:

collection of historical data

survey of the building using traditional and computer-laser technology(traditional

survey method with technical amenities which include survey with hand devices, total

station and laser scanning survey and photography)

analyses of buildings' state: construction (foundation, external and internal bearing

walls, wall plaster, beams, joist and all the internal details), used materials included all

types of doors, windows, mashrabiyas, rawashin and even(Timber ties)Arbta -

hkhasbiyah, connecting wooden line, which are placed generally in between the coral

stone walls, level of deterioration pathologies and causes of deterioration, etc.) and to

give a diagnose the specific problem of the building for the conservation purpose.

Second part of the process includes following components:

to restitute original state of the buildings, and finally,

prepare conceptual design for rehabilitation and reuse of buildings.

These studies will be carried out under the supervision of experts in this field:

Dr. Osamah El Gohari, Dr. Amir Pasic, Eng. Sami Saleh Mahmoud Nawar, Dr. Syed Anis

Hashim, Dr. Sameh Abdusalam Abbas, Alija Botic, Dr. Motasim Kasasbekh and Dr.

Muhammad Ejaz Iqbal Siddiqui.
