This vintage postcard shows a gate within the ancient fortifications of Tangier, Morocco. These walls, originally built to protect the city, were an important part of Tangier's defensive strategy, guarding it against invasions and maintaining its status as a critical port city. The fortifications date back centuries, with many parts of the walls constructed during the 15th and 16th centuries. Tangier's location, facing both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, made it a key strategic and trade hub, attracting various European and North African powers.
The reverse side is unused, with the typical correspondence and address fields, and is marked "Edit. Lebrun frères à Tanger."
