The City of Serjella
The forgotten cities of Syria are sprinkled throughout the country between Aleppo and Idlib – like treasures of ancient civilizations. The jewel of Serjella shines particularly bright as it is the best preserved and the most beautiful of all.
Arising in a natural basin at the bottom of the Eastern slope of the Riha Mountain, the city prospered largely from cultivating olives and producing olive oil, which was exported to all Europe. Relics have been found attesting that the city of Serjella was built around the 5th century AD.
Strewn across the city, lies the remains of churches, tombs, Roman baths, and villas. However, it is the olive mills that capture the fascination of this eternal city.
