Medersa Jardin Medina Architecture Histoire

Ben Youssef Madrasa is one of the largest Quranic schools in North Africa. Founded in the 14th century, it impresses with its white marble courtyard, zellige mosaics and cedar wood carvings. Its 130 student rooms surround a peaceful courtyard with a central basin.

Le Jardin Secret, a recently restored 19th-century riad-museum, offers two distinct gardens: an Islamic garden and an exotic garden. The panoramic tower offers spectacular views of the medina and the Atlas Mountains.
