Agadir Amazigh Culture Museum, Amazigh cultural museum in Agadir, Morocco.
The Agadir Amazigh Culture Museum is a museum in Agadir that displays more than 900 historical objects from Amazigh civilization. The collection includes traditional carpets, pottery, ethnic jewelry, and clothing that document the life and craftsmanship of this people.
The museum was founded after the city of Agadir acquired a major collection of Amazigh jewelry in 1995. It was a rebuilding of cultural memory for the region following a devastating natural disaster decades earlier.
The exhibition shows how Amazigh people used traditional jewelry and textiles as expressions of their identity. Visitors can see the craftsmanship and patterns that were passed down through generations.
The museum is open daily except Sundays and religious holidays, with separate morning and afternoon hours. It is helpful to check the specific times in advance, as holiday schedules may vary.
The collection includes a special necklace called Massa, which is a central symbol of regional cultural heritage. This jewelry piece demonstrates the craftsmanship and cultural importance preserved in Amazigh tradition.
