History of Tetouan


First named Tamuda, Tetouan was founded by the Berbers in the 3rd century BC. Roman conquerors destroyed the city in the 1st century AD and replaced it with their own. The ruins still stand on the edge of the town.

The Merenids were next on the scene. They were ousted by Spanish invaders, who ruled intermittently from the 14th to the 17th century. As the capital of the Spanish protectorate from 1913 to 1956, Tetouan traded extensively with mainland Spain. The influence of Spanish architecture and culture is still very much in evidence in Tetouan today.
