Dâr-al-Makhzen is the primary and official residence of the king of Morocco. It is situated in the Touarga commune of Rabat, the national capital. ==History== Since the reign of sultan Muhammad ibn Abdallah, the Alaouite sultans and kings have maintained a palace in Rabat. The current building was built in 1864, to replace the older palace, by Muhammad IV. Morocco had been formerly under the control of the French since 1912, and they wanted the sultan to be largely stationed in one place, near their own administrative headquarters, in order to show his acceptance of the new regime.〔 The sultan chose the French architects Louis-Paul Pertuzio and Félix-Joseph Pertuzio to design the palace, and Jean-Claude Nicolas Forestier to design the extensive palace gardens. Although kings had many residences at their disposal, when independence was declared in 1956, they chose to keep the Dâr-al-Makhzen palace as the main palace of the monarch. Some monarchs, particularly Muhammad V, preferred the smaller and relatively secluded palace of Dar es Salaam, further out of centre of the city, maintaining the Dâr-al-Makhzen as their official and administrative residence.〔 Several important events in the lives of a number of Moroccan royals have taken place in the palace, including Hassan II in 1929 and the marriage ceremony of Mohammed VI and Salma Bennani in 2002. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dar al-Makhzen (Rabat)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
