Fortalezas costeras del Oeste y Norte de Marruecos (S.XV-S.XVII)

Portuguese coastal fortifications along Morocco's Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts, spanning the 15th to 17th centuries, represent a shared heritage recognized by UNESCO. These structures, built during Portugal's occupation from 1415 to 1769, served as strategic strongholds in conflicts with Morocco, including the city of Mazagan (now El Jadida). While efforts have been made to refurbish and rehabilitate these sites, significant conservation work remains. The study highlights their historical significance and the ongoing challenges in preserving this cultural legacy.
