Fantastic place not to be missed! Great collections of vintage photos also including some early 1900 color ones! And the terrace on top is great to relax with a drink at the end of your visit!

I'm a photographer myself but the (small) exposition was of high quality. Beat part is terrace and the daily lunch menu . Don't miss this oasis of friendly ppl in touristy Medina.

Nice collection of photos (about the country and the people). Terrace was a must. Restaurant is also good, but come early, otherwise it’s full!

This terrific little museum exhibits more than 8,000 original prints and postcards chronicling the lives of Moroccan communities between 1870 and 1950. Views from the rooftop cafe are pretty special. Read more

Great museum and top terrace where a good and cheap lunch or a sweet mint tea will take you losing yourself on Marrakech's rooftops !

Views from the rooftop terrace are fabulous. Make sure you have enough time to see all the exhibits and the video show. Good value at 40dhs.

Vanessa Rueda

as a photographer that visit a lots of museums , this is more like a shop. It’s a collection of portraits. I think people is crazy about this because they can buy moroccan faces in black and white.

Le musee est agreable, les expos sont interressantes et la terrasse permet de se reposer au calme en sirotant un jus de citron / menthe tres bon!

Francesco Carlini

Una collezione di stampe ai sali d'argento dal 1920 in poi. Dire che merita è riduttivo, è fantastica. Terrazza splendida. Unico problema: trovarla tra i millemila suq..ma con un po' di fortuna..

Erwin

Topmuseum. 3 verdiepingen met voornamelijk zwart-wit foto’s uit de jaren 30. Je leert meteen ook wat bij over de stad. Mooi dakterras waar je iets kan drinken. In de shop kan je foto’s aankopen.

Jonathan Terazzi

Visite sympa pendant l'expo "Marrakech : terre de lumière". Quelques très belles photos, mais rien d'inoubliable. La petite terrasse sur les toits conclut très bien la visite, avec une belle vue .

Zeynep Fırat

Fas'ın tüm geçmişini bu müzede bulabilirsiniz. Fotoğraflar çöm başarılı ve çıkışta istediğinizi satın alabiliyorsunuz. Terasından tüm şehri görerek kahvenizi içebilirsiniz.
