About Matbakh al Ajami

Matbakh al-Ajami is an uncommon magnum opus of Zengid-time engineering. Dating from the twelfth Century, it was initially a royal residence. It brags a mind boggling vault and a lavishly adorned entranceway. These days the building houses a souq, or market, where you can walk around and peruse the magnificent trinkets of the Orient on sale.

The supposed Matbakh kitchen of al-'Ajami of Aleppo is situated around 150 meters west of the Citadel, on a cutting edge road that associates the Citadel with the Great Mosque. More then likely, this was initially an Ayyubid royal residence that was worked in the mid thirteenth century by the outstanding al-'Ajami family, making it the main residual non-illustrious Ayyubid castle in Syria.

Its ID lays on a section in Ibn Shaddad that portrays the Madrasa al-Sharafiyya, which was worked by Banu al-'Ajami, and their adjacent palace.1 About 33% of this royal residence, including its whole southern iwan, was devastated when the road to its south was extended in 1965 and the castle was given a façade in the Mamluk style.
