El Príncipe is a Spanish television series of drama and suspense created by Aitor Gabilondo and César Benítez for Telecinco. The series, produced by Mediaset Spain in collaboration with Plano a Plano, is aimed at a young audience. Its plot is centered on the love between a Christian policeman from the Spanish mainland and the young Muslim sister of a drug trafficker. Most of the stories are set in the troubled El Príncipe Alfonso neighbourhood of Ceuta, near the border with Morocco.
The series is set in a district of Ceuta. Most of the scenes were not filmed in that city, but in a film studio in Madrid. The series does show some of the best-known places in Ceuta, such as the Murallas Reales ("royal walls").
