Dar El Bacha Museum
About This Museum
People come to Dar El Bacha not just for the artifacts, but to step into the world of a 20th-century Moroccan pasha. You wander through serene courtyards with zellij-tiled fountains, then duck into rooms filled with ancient pottery, intricate jewelry, and beautifully preserved manuscripts. It feels less like a formal museum and more like exploring the lavish, forgotten home of a powerful collector. The real magic is how it transports you completely away from the chaos of the Marrakech medina.
Collection Highlights
Look for the stunning collection of traditional Berber jewelry in silver and coral, and don't miss the room dedicated to pre-Islamic ceramics. The real centerpiece, however, might be the building itself.
Visitor Information
It's tucked away on Rue Fatima Zahra in the medina—follow the signs. Make sure to save time for the gorgeous café in the main courtyard; their mint tea and pastries are legendary.
Architecture & Building
A quintessential example of early 20th-century Moroccan architecture, with grand arched doorways, soaring cedar wood ceilings carved with incredible detail, and peaceful interior gardens shaded by orange trees.
