American Legation Museum Approx. Time: 3 hours
Activity Level: Easy to Moderate


This palace was given to the United States of America in 1777, to commemorate Morocco's contribution as the first country to officially recognize American independence. Now an "American Historical Landmark," the American Legation Museum houses a fascinating display of both Tangier's history and the early interactions between The United States and Morocco.
