Royal Palace of Tétouan
The Royal Palace (Dar al-Makhzen) sits on Hassan II Square — still known locally as the Feddan — at the edge of Tétouan's medina. Built around 1740 as the local governor's palace, it became the seat of the Khalifa during the Spanish protectorate era (1913–1956) and now serves as an official royal residence, not open to the public. The palace's ornate entrance pavilion and the open square in front of it, ringed by wrought-iron lamps and views up to the whitewashed medina, are among Tétouan's most photographed spots.
