Deir Ez-zor Heritage Library

“Deir ez-Zor has no one but her people” is a volunteer-led documentation initiative by three architects dedicated to safeguarding the cultural heritage of Deir ez-Zor, Syria, damaged during armed conflict. Headed by Lamis Bakjaji, we record historic buildings using photogrammetry—preserving memory, supporting future reconstruction, and amplifying the voice of the local community. This work forms part of the broader Deir ez-Zor Heritage Library, a project to study and protect the city’s urban identity, archaeology, and sustainable future. All scanning and documentation are done with smartphones and medium-performance laptops. If you care about our shared heritage, join us—specialist or not—and contribute your knowledge. Together, we can help rebuild Deir ez-Zor.
