The first museum in Morocco has a vast collection of traditional Andalucian, Jewish Moroccan and Islamic arts and crafts amassed by the Belghazi family.
Displays include measuring instruments (one of the first Belghazis was an astrologist at the Qarawiyin court in Fez), 17th-century carpets, exquisitely carved wooden minbars (mosque pulpits), doors and ceilings dating from the 10th century, intricate gold and silver jewellery, exceptional pottery and embroidery from Fez, and miniature copies of the Quran. There is a boutique with souvenirs and a restaurant.
The museum is 17km from Salé on the road to Kenitra. Take bus 28 from Ave Moulay Hassan in Rabat or from the main gate of the Salé medina.
