On Wednesday, March 18, 2026, a partial wall collapse occurred at the renowned tourist riad known as "Siline Spa" in the historic city of Marrakech. The incident took place in one of the narrow alleys of the Roud Jdid area, which is known for its bustling daily activity among residents and visitors alike.
According to the available information, the accident caused moderate material damages; however, fortunately, there were no reported injuries. This outcome has prevented a potential tragedy, especially given the narrowness of the alleys that often see high foot traffic. The owners of the riad confirmed in their statement that the collapse was limited to a section of the wall, resulting in damage to the exterior structure and some equipment, while awaiting a precise technical assessment of the extent of the losses.
Upon being notified of the incident, local authorities from the administrative district swiftly intervened to secure the area surrounding the collapse, mitigating any additional risks. They also contacted the relevant technical services, particularly those affiliated with the Al Omran company, to dispatch a specialized team to handle the removal of debris and restore the site to its original condition.
As the technical assessment results are awaited, this incident serves as a new wake-up call to intensify monitoring and strengthen preventive measures to ensure the safety of lives and preserve the architectural memory that forms part of the identity of historic Marrakech.
