Casamar (Also known as Port Victoria, and Mackenzie’s factory.[1]) is coastal fort, built in 1882 in Cape Jubi under the name of "Port Victoria" and by the British North West Africa Company, who positioned there early in 1879 in the goal of trading with commercial caravans coming from Timbuktu and heading to Noun River[1]. But in 1895 the company give up the building.
By the year 1916 the Spanish occupation came to the area, and the building would be known as casamar Spanish: Casa del Mar.
In 2014 the Moroccan Ministry of Culture launched a five-year rehabilitation project, at a cost of 60 million dirhams [2].
