Mausoleum of Mohammed V, Rabat, Morocco

Mausoleum of Mohammed V in Rabat, Morocco

The last place we visited while in Rabat was the mausoleum of Mohammed V. He was born in 1909 and was sultan of Morocco from 1927 until 1953 when he was exiled. On his return from exile in 1955 he was again recognised as the sultan until he became king in 1957. He remained king until his death in 1961 and is buried in the magnificent mausoleum shown in today’s photos. In the coming days I will shown more of this magnificent building, both inside and outside.
