This historic Islamic school from the 14th century is one of the most beautiful monuments in Marrakech and showcases the incredible talents of Morocan artisans. The courtyard is a marble masterpiece decorated with intricate cedar wood carvings and colorful zellij (mosaic tilework). Seeing the painstaking and immaculate efforts of Moroccan craftsmanship will give you a profound appreciation for the architecture across the city and country.
