In 2003, Akkar was no longer a province, but was declared a Mouhafazah with Halba as its capital.
One of the most famous archeological sites and the birth place of the Emperor Alexander Severus, is the Tell of Arqa near the town of Miniara.

Located near the village of Akkar al-Atiqa (Old Akkar), the hour's hike to the castle begins at a bridge over a little river, just where the road climbs steeply to the village of Akkar al-Atiqa.
The castle stands on a narrow spur at 694 meters but the best view is from the village itself - just follow the road over the bridge.
Probably built in the late 10th century A.D. by Mouhriz Ibn Akkar, the castle was taken by the Crusaders in the 12th century and reconquered in 1271 by the Mamluke Sultan Baibars.

His successor is Abdelhamid Akkar, a little known 59-year old literature critic who spent thirteen years within the union's central bureau, from 1983 to 1996.
“The main challenge for Akkar will now be to maintain a certain balance within the UEM, which is essential since it includes people with different ideologies such as the socialists, the communists, the independents (the biggest group), the islamists or the Imazighen.
