LARACHE : ARCHAEOLOGICAL
MUSEUM
Formerly
the palace of Sultan Youssef Abdelhak el Merini between 1258 and
1281, the history of this impressive building also includes its
use by the Spaniards as a setting for state occasions, as a
courthouse and even as a weapons room.
The view from the palace over the Loukos region is quite
staggering.
Today,
it houses reminders of all the great moments in Morocco's life.
Souvenirs of its struggle for independence, ancient coins,
fishing equipment, musical instruments, statues, jewellery and
perfume bottles...
