Suggested Duration: 2 hours
The Kasbah Museum, located in Tangier's historic Dar El Makhzen palace, showcases the region's history from prehistoric times to the 19th century. Renovated in recent years, it features exhibits in French and Arabic, including artifacts from Volubilis, statuary, and detailed historical maps. A notable highlight is the 1154 world map created in Tangier, displayed with an unconventional orientation. Visitors can explore the museum's collections before strolling through its Andalusian garden. Situated at the highest point of the medina, it is accessible via Bab Kasbah gate and is wheelchair-friendly.

    Worth the visit. It takes 30min to see but you can spend more time. The gardens are beautiful and they have good pieces of different history periods. Unfortunately it’s only in French and Arabic, we would strongly encourage them to add English. I would go back if so to be able to understand everything. The ticket was 30 dirhams each. The staff was very kind and flexible to let us visit everything even though they were closing

    Recommend to visit Very nice place, reasonably priced for tourists too. you can easily spend there 1hr take time to walk and read, sit in the garden. Unfortunately the display descriptions are NOT in English so you may need to use translator app if you want to know what it says or have a guide with you. Nice place, lots to see. Watch in the garden for tortoises we counted 3 of them but might be more.

    Very nice compact little museum with a garden up stairs. I wish they would put some of the information in english and with dates of the objects. Worth visiting.

    This was a concise museum in a nice old palace. Admission fee was reasonable 50 dirhams. Nice artifacts from the region. I’d have liked a little more explanation of the groupings and the exhibit focus. Staff was helpful but did not speak much English or Spanish.
