Museum of music mouassine

Experiencia fantástica: Lovely museum dedicated to music, in a beautiful building. Wonderful very quiet rooftop terras. Worth a visit!

Experiencia fantástica: A great museum, telling tge story of Moroccan music inside the beautiful building. 3 days a week they have a concert at 6pm, followed by tea and cookies on tge terrace.

Experiencia fantástica: We went there for a traditional Berber music performance which itself lasted about 45 minutes. The three musicians were really great and the building was beautiful. After the show we were invited to their beautiful rooftop patio for mint tea and traditional cookies. It was a great way to experience something different! The only thing was that their land line did not work, so we couldn’t call to book the show. Instead, we walked there the evening before and booked directly in person. But it was definitely worth it :-)

Experiencia fantástica: This was an incredible place to visit. It was recommended by a friend. I am a musician so it kind of makes sense that i'd visit a music museum BUT this is so much more than a music museum! There is a great section on the music of Africa in general to the rich variety of music from Morocco more specifically. It's very well done and as it was quiet I was allowed to try out some of the instruments for myself! It is a fantastic restoration of a medieval Riad, possibly one of the finest architectural things I've seen in the whole of Marrakech. It was also the birth place of famous Moroccan artist Mellakh, the first floor is dedicated to his life and work and there are some pieces on display. There is also the restoration of the typical reception rooms of a wealthy family's Riad several hundred years ago. The restoration is exquisite and very true to the original scheme of the house. I went onto the roof top terrace for the view and a Frenchman started taking to me. Turns out he was the owner of the museum and also the owner of the nearby Mansion de la Photographie. He was a friendly and fascinating character who had a real passion for preserving and promoting Moroccan heritage, it was an honour to meet him. Finally, the guy on the entrance who's name say escapes me, was very friendly too and as it was quiet gave me a guided tour of the ground floor. I cannot recommend this museum enough. It definitely needs to be shouted about more and needs to be seen and enjoyed by more people - tell all of your friends! John, Newcastle UK

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent place, wonderful atmosphere. It's a must see in Marrakech. Thanks a lot Mr. P. It was a honor to meet you. PS. The museum is always open, do not trust the people who tell you that is closed.
