Musée de la Palmeraie, situated in the Palmeraie district of Marrakesh, is a prominent museum dedicated to modern Moroccan art. Nestled within an expansive Andalusian garden featuring adobe houses, it boasts an impressive collection of photography, painting, and sculpture. The museum is particularly noted for its 20th-century artworks, including watercolors, drawings, prints, and oil paintings by distinguished Marrakshi artists such as Hicham Benohoud, Abderrahim Iqbi, and Larbi Cherkaoui, which reflect the profound influence of Moroccan life and Islamic culture on local art.

Lovely art gallery with fantastic tranquil gardens. We enjoyed the gardens so much we sat and chilled for a long while. Take a drink and a snack and sit at one of the many tables or benches and enjoy.

This museum is amazing! It has everything – a beautiful garden, a cactus grove, and great galleries. The best part is that it’s so quiet, with almost no people. The entrance fee is just 50mad, and it’s worth every penny. It’s the most peaceful and relaxing museum I’ve visited in Marrakech. Definitely my favorite!

Beautiful garden oasis in the Palmeraie with a fabulous collection of modern art. Much less touristy than Jardin Marjorelle

Stunning collection of paintings and the sculpture garden is lovely. Entrance price prix is 50 dhs. It feels ok as you also have access to a beautiful cactus garden. I hope the foundation just will do an effort to improve the story of the collection. It would be lovely to have plates next to the works with date of work and artists and title. Some of the paintings and drawings are in a bad condition. And most of the lights are not working in the showroom. Please give them the care they deserve.
