Dating back to the 11th century, it was an important stop on the trans-Saharan trade, famous for its salt, gold and slave trade.

The old town retains its traditional adobe houses and narrow streets with a strong Tuareg cultural atmosphere. Local handicrafts are renowned, especially silver jewelry and leather goods.
