Dar Jamaï Museum
دار الجامعي
A museum in a 19th-century vizier’s residence displaying Moroccan woodwork, ceramics and carpets, with a quiet Andalusian-style garden.
Dar Jamai (دار الجامعي) was built in 1882 as the residence of the family of the sultan’s vizier, Jamai. It sits right next to El Hedim Square and now houses the National Museum of Music and Art. Its main highlights are the painted cedar ceilings, the well-preserved reception rooms upstairs, and the Andalusian-style garden planted with citrus and cypress trees. The collection includes Fez blue pottery, Berber carpets, embroidery and metalwork. Admission is about 30 dirhams, and it is closed on Tuesdays.
Opening hours
Closed Tuesdays; 10:00–18:00
