Description
The school was founded in the 14th century and students here memorized the Koran by rote.
A central courtyard is surrounded by the student dormitories and home to a small pool for ablutions (washing or cleansing of the body). The buildings are of stunning architecture, with beautiful decorations. You can walk through the school and have a look in the student dormitories. Have a peak through the windows where the boys could look at the central courtyard.
Marrakech is all about the Djem El Fnaa square and the soukhs. But do spare some time to visit this marvelous piece of architecture.
