Resumen
Un interesante y desconocido capítulo de la persistencia de las formas barrocas en la arquitectura española del siglo XVIII se encuentra en dos ciudades de Marruecos: Larache ( -ا لعرائش Al Araish) y Tánger ( طنچة - Tanja). En estas capitales, el rey Carlos III ordenó construir dos edificios que funcionaron como legaciones diplomáticas ante el Sultán. En ellos se mantiene todavía un cierto carácter manierista, aunque situado ya en una cronología del barroco más tardío. Los proyectos fueron realizados por los arquitectos Juan Fernández y Francisco Pérez Arroyo, que desplegaron programas acordes con la representatividad diplomática a la que estaban destinados. Las vicisitudes históricas y los cambios de uso han marcado las transformaciones de estos dos palacios que subsisten en nuestros días como unos grandes desconocidos, a pesar del importantísimo papel que desempeñaron durante muchos años.

The king Carlos III ordered the construction of two buildings, which were used like residence of the diplomatic legation to maintain the relationship with the sultan. They still retain a certain mannerist features, although they are situated chronologically in the later baroque. The projects were realized by the architects Juan Fernández and Francisco Pérez Arroyo, who carried out some programmes which took into account the diplomatic representation for which they had been destined. The historical vicissitudes and the changes of theirs use have marked the transformation of these two palaces which survive nowadays although they are completely unknown for us, in spite of the main rol they played for a long time.
