Summary
Two previously unpublished 1888 plans of the Bad Nuader Gate in Tétouan's Medina, held in the Cartoteca of the Geographic Service of the Army, provide a detailed record of its state before the Spanish Protectorate. These meticulous surveys at a scale of 1:100, authored by Francisco Gómez Jordana, Alejo Corso, and Eduardo Álvarez, reveal the gate's historical configuration and offer critical insights for modern restoration efforts. The plans underscore the importance of preserving Tétouan's defensive heritage, allowing researchers to establish accurate restoration criteria based on its pre-occupation condition.
