Marrakech CNN —A small mosque at the heart of the Marrakech Medina in the city’s historical quarter was a treasured place of prayer for the hundreds of traders working at the busy market outside. Outside the damaged mosque, local resident Zined Hatimi recalled the terror of Friday night. The Marrakech Medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site was hit by the 6.8 magnitude earthquake on Friday, the largest to hit the area in at least 120 years. Many of the old buildings inside the Medina have been damaged and some have collapsed entirely. Away from the historical Medina, in many of the modern parts of Marakkech, the impact was barely noticeable.
