Musée de Marrakech d'architecture, Architecture museum in Medina, Marrakesh, Morocco
The museum occupies the Dar Menebhi Palace, featuring traditional Moroccan architecture with intricate tile work, carved cedar wood, and ornate geometric patterns throughout its spaces.
The palace, constructed in the late 19th century by Mehdi al-Mnebhi, minister of war under Sultan Moulay Abdelaziz, became a museum in 1997 after extensive renovations.
The collection includes traditional weapons, Berber jewelry, Fez pottery, carpets, costumes, and Jewish liturgical items that represent Morocco's diverse heritage.
The museum welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, with an entrance fee of 70 dirhams per person.
The central courtyard displays a massive brass chandelier with geometric designs, while the surrounding galleries contain decorative wall fountains covered in colorful zellij tiles.
