Plaça de Tetuan (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈplasə ðə tətuˈan]), known in Spanish as Plaza de Tetuán, is a major square in Barcelona. It is in Fort Pienc, in the central district of Eixample, at the busy intersection of Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes and Passeig de Sant Joan. The square is named after the 1860 Battle of Tétouan, the siege and occupation of the Moroccan city of Tetuan by general Joan Prim and Catalan volunteers.
