As of the 2008 census, the commune had a population of 39,409 people, up from 32,940 in 1998,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.statoids.com/ydz.html )〕 and an annual growth rate of 1.8%.〔 However, Touggourt's urban area includes the communes of Nezla, Tebesbest and Zaouia El Abidia, for a total population of 146,108.〔 Touggourt is notable for its date trees. It was formerly surrounded by a moat, which the French filled up. Bradt Travel Guides describe it as "largely a modern town of block architecture and as such is largely unattractive. The centre is quiet most of the day due to the heat but is more active at night when people take to the streets." ==History== In 1414 the Sultanate of Touggourt was founded in southern Algeria. In 1854 the sultanate was abolished by the French colonial authorities.
