Sights

Old Town
Perched on a cliff top overlooking the ocean is the ruin of the kasbah OFFLINE MAP
GOOGLE MAP (Qebibat) , a 16th-century fortress built by the Portuguese and closed to visit-
ors as it is now in a state of serious disrepair. Head south from here to the old cobbled
medina OFFLINE MAP , through Bab al-Khemis OFFLINE MAP GOOGLE MAP , a large, unmistak-
able Hispano-Moorish arch on Pl de la Libération. You come immediately into a colon-
naded market square, the bustling Zoco de la Alcaiceria , which was built by the Spaniards
during their first occupation of Larache in the 17th century. The Archaeological Museum
was closed at the time of research.
