Fort Al Kabibat - Larache, Morocco

🇲🇦 مرحبا بك في المغرب

Welcome to Morocco! Bienvenue a Maroc!

This model was created by Alejandro Castillo ( @gordo_maker ).

The modern city of Larache in Morocco is located in the Atlantic coast, between Tangier and the country capital Rabat. It was originally founded by Phoenicians as a trading post in the mouth of the Lukkus river in the 7th Century. Later, it became a Roman city named Lixus.

From the late 1400's onwards, the port and its fort changed hands several times between the local muslim rulers, the Portuguese, the Spanish, the French, and even the Barbary Pirates; as the harbor and river mouth were valuable strategic locations for commercial and military purposes.

Today, Fort Al Kabibat is popularly known as Stork's Castle ( château de la cigogne ). It is well-maintained and serves as a public park ( from Starforts.com ).
