Situated on the southern edge of the Aïr plateau, at an altitude of about 520 meters, the city was an important hub connecting West Africa with the North African trade routes. Dating back to the 11th century, it was an important stop on the trans-Saharan trade, famous for its salt, gold and slave trade.

Cultural heritage and architectural features of Agadez

Agadez's most famous landmark is the Agadez Clay Mosque, built in the 16th century, a 27-meter-high Sultan Sahelian-style structure that is one of the symbols of Niger and was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2013. 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.
