The City That Remembers

Tetouan carries the imprint of two exiled peoples at once: Sephardi families and Morisco refugees alike, both still speaking dialects of the Spanish their grandparents brought with them, both still naming their children after towns in an Iberia neither community will ever see again. Few cities anywhere carry so much memory in their streets, courts, and kitchens all at once.

historical_info = d009_morisco_diaspora.10.historical_info Tetouan was rebuilt and resettled largely by Sephardi and Andalusi Muslim exiles after they were expelled from Iberia, and the city therefore retained its uniquely Iberian-influenced character, including the Haketia and Moroccan-Arabic dialects that still carry traces of Spanish, well into the twentieth century.
