Bank Al-Maghrib Museum
متحف بنك المغرب
A currency museum run by the central bank, tracing Moroccan money from ancient coins to modern banknotes, with an additional art collection.
The Bank Al-Maghrib Museum is located inside the central bank building near Mohammed V Avenue in the New Town. It displays coins and banknotes from the Phoenician, Roman, Idrisid and modern periods, and explains minting and anti-counterfeiting techniques. Another section shows the central bank's collection of modern Moroccan paintings. Admission is inexpensive, about MAD 10–20. The air-conditioned galleries are comfortable, making it a good choice for a rainy day or an afternoon indoors.
