Ghar al Milh

(重定向自Porto Farina)

Ghar al Milh (Tunisian Arabic:غارالملح), formerly known as Porto Farina, is a coastal town and former port in north-eastern Tunisia. The town was an important base for Barbary pirates until it was destroyed by Admiral Robert Blake in 1655. However the harbour and defences were soon rebuilt and it became a base for British and Maltese pirates. In 1834 a huge arsenal belonging to a Maltese pirate exploded and destroyed part of the town. Ahmed Bey, the last Bey of Constantine, decided to clamp down on piracy and attempted to turn the port over to legitimate trade. He invested in new jetties and fortresses but the estuary then began to silt up. Today Ghar El Melh is a small farming town.
