The Marinid Walls of Ceuta are a significant historical fortification located in Ceuta, an autonomous city of Spain situated on the north coast of Africa. Constructed in the 13th century by the Marinid dynasty, these walls were built to protect the city from potential invasions and to assert the Marinid control over the region. The fortifications reflect the military architecture of the time, featuring robust stone walls, towers, and gates.
