This paper analizes the actual design process of <i>Castillo de Felipe III</i> in La Mamora, Morocco, constructed as an enclave by Spain of Felipe III in 1614. The military engineer who designed the Castle was Cristóbal de Rojas, the most important Spanish military engineer in that period. And this paper demonstrates that its design was to establish an appropriated inner space or area of the Castle in order to accomodate a certain number of solders who would be stationed in it. In the final process, the inner space or area was set by an inner circumference as a value that defines the proportion of the Castle. This paper also shows that this actual design process is not explained in the treatises of Rojas.

This paper analyzes, for the first time, the whole process of the planning of the defensive walls realized in Larache, Morocco, the enclave Spain of Felipe III possessed in 1610, by referring the related documents in Coleccion Aparici. The final plan was based on the idea of Bautista Antonelli, one of the most important military engineers in that period. And this paper shows that the most important factor in that process was to make a project which can be constructed with low cost and two conditions observed in the original plan of Antonelli were not seen in the final plan. Antonelli modified his original plan according to the wish of the Court which was concerned about its cost. At that period, the Spanish government was trying to reduce the expenditure for military budget, including that of the fortification, in order to solve its financial problem. Therefore, we can regard the process of the planning of the fortification in Larache as a case that shows the general feature of Spanish fortification in the first quarter of the 17th century.
