The Legion and its museum moved to Ceuta in 1956 when Morocco gained independence from Spain. At first the museum was in a small room of the barracks of the 2nd Regiment (Tercio) of the Legion in Dar-Riffien (Tetouan). Upon the Moroccan independence, the museum was moved to the Barracks of El Serrallo but a purpose-built building was constructed in 1978 on the Paseo de Colón.[1]
