Al Murabba Historical Palace, also known as King Abdulaziz Palace, is one of Riyadh’s most significant landmarks. It was the first palace built specifically for King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud, the founder of Saudi.

King Abdulaziz moved here in 1938, thirty-six years after entering Riyadh, having previously resided in Al-Hukm Palace. More than a royal residence, the palace served as a political hub where the Kingdom’s first regulations were issued and the Political Department was established, which later became the foundation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Many royal decrees shaping Saudi’s economic and political growth were made here, making the palace a symbol of the beginnings of modern governance.
