Present-day Skikda was founded by Sylvain Charles Valée in 1838 under the name **Philippeville**, honoring the French king at the time.The French were in the process of annexing Algeria and developed Philippeville as a port for Constantine,Algeria's third-largest city. The two cities were connected by rail.The harbour works,with every vessel in port, was destroyed by a storm in 1878;a larger harbour was then built. On 10 October 1883, there was an earthquake in Philippeville.
