Jeddah’s Old Walls and Gates: Jeddah's Old Wall and GatesThe wall surrounding Jeddah was built by Hussain Al-Kurdi, who was one of the Mamluk Princes, because he wanted to protect the Red Sea from the attacks by the Portuguese thus embarking on providing it with castles, towers, and cannons to repel the warships that are assaulting the city. He also initiated the construction of this wall and dug a trench outside it to further guard the city from enemy attacks

Building technique the method of building was to arrange the building stones over each other, separated by pieces of wood (Takaleel), which helped in the fair distribution of the loads on the walls. This old method of building, which uses wood and stone, is very similar to the modern concrete and timber way of building where wood is used to hold concrete in order to alleviate the weight of the building
