Meknes is one of the four imperial cities of Morocco, located in northern central Morocco and the sixth largest city by population in the kingdom. Founded in the 11th century by the Almoravids as a military settlement, Meknes became the capital of Morocco during the reign of Sultan Ismail Ibn Sharif (1672–1727), son of the founder of the Alaouite dynasty.
Sultan Ismail created a massive imperial palace complex and endowed the city with extensive fortifications and monumental gates.
The city recorded a population of 695,662 in the 2024 Moroccan census. It is the seat of Meknès Prefecture and an important economic hub in the region of Fez-Meknes.
