Church of the Immaculate Conception, Roman Catholic cathedral in central Tangier, Morocco

The Church of the Immaculate Conception stands on Rue Es-Siaghine with a prominent clock tower featuring a distinctive cupola design.

The Spanish government funded the construction of this religious building in 1880, establishing it as the first Catholic worship location in Tangier.

The cathedral serves as the principal seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Tangier, reflecting the Spanish religious influence in Morocco.

The interior space, managed by the Missionaries of Charity since 1996, includes two separate floors created through a renovation of the original nave.

The underground crypt contains the remains of Father José María Lerchundi, who initiated the construction of this religious complex.
