Everything in the museum was written in Arabic and French. It was missing information in English. It’s a pity we couldn’t learn something new because of that.

A hidden gem! 50 dirhams well spent. Beautiful building, it was empty when we visited. This museum does however need some TLC and restorative work.

From all the museums I visited in Marrakech I enjoyed this one the least. Entrance fee is 50 dirham and it’s not worth the money. It’s very small, the art collection is mediocre unfortunately. The cleaning lady also scammed us with toilet fee although that was not officially mentioned anywhere. The building in which it is hosted is quite nice, however, with an interesting main courtyard.
