Dar al-Makhzen

Dar-al-Makhzen is the essential and authority living arrangement of the lord of Morocco. It is arranged in the Touarga collective of Rabat, the national capital. Since the rule of Sultan Mohammed ben Abdallah, the Alaouite sultans and lords have kept up a castle in Rabat. The present building was worked in 1864, to supplant the more established royal residence, by Mohammed IV. Morocco had been some time ago under the control of the French since 1912, and they needed the sultan to be generally positioned in one place, close to their own particular managerial base camp, so as to demonstrate his acknowledgment of the new administration.

In spite of the fact that rulers had numerous living arrangements available to them when autonomy was announced in 1955, they kept the Dar-al-Makhzen royal residence as the primary royal residence of the monarch. Some rulers, especially Mohammed V, favored the littler and generally disconnected castle of Dar es Salaam, farther of focus of the city, keeping up the Dar-al-Makhzen as their official and authoritative residence. A few imperative occasions in the lives of ious Moroccan royals have occurred in the castle, including the introduction of Hassan II in 1929 and the wedding function of Mohammed VI and Salma Bennani in 2002.
