Mouassine Museum, Art museum in Mouassine district, Marrakesh, Morocco.
The Mouassine Museum occupies a restored house from the 16th century, featuring elaborate wooden ceilings and traditional stucco decorations in the upper-floor apartment.
During the 1560s, Sultan Moulay Abdallah al-Ghalib commissioned this residence, which later transformed from a noble family house into a cultural institution in 2014.
The museum functions as a center for Moroccan music, presenting performances that include Andalusian, Berber, and African musical traditions in its historical chambers.
Visitors can attend evening concerts every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 6 to 7 PM, while regular museum hours extend from 10 AM to 7 PM daily.
The restoration process revealed original wall decorations in verdigris and apricot colors, along with Kufic script designs that remained hidden under plaster for centuries.
