Worth a visit for the lovely architecture and a glimpse into the history of Marrakech. Don't be led astray by "helpful" locals who tell you it's closed and then lead you to the smelly tanneries.

The delicate intricacy of the gibs, carved cedar , and zellij in the central courtyard are beautiful. Muslim students once studied here, and tiny upper-level rooms surround the open courtyard .

A stunning confluence of carved cedar , zellij tile work , and ornate stucco from the 15th century. Brook a private tour and visit the tiny dormitory spaces where some of the 900-odd students lived.

Pretty cool and has lots of nice colors. Slightly boring because of how empty it is. Definitely worth it to pay an extra 10 Dh to visit the museum which provides interesting art and info on Morocco.

C'est tout dans les détails. It's all in the details. The needles in the beams on the southern side are more exposed because the sun ate away the wood over hundreds of years.

Must visit! Beautiful Moroccan architecture with colorful details. Interesting history of place. If you travel with baby better take carrier, might be problematic to walk all stairs with a stroller.

One of the largest colleges in Morocco. It's really gorgeous. I would suggest to go super early in the morning to avoid the tourists .

The efforts required to find this well hidden gem is totally worth it. Beautiful architecture ! Just a bit sad this place is not being used for its purpose anymore!

Closed for renovation in 2018!

This former college is one of Morocco’s most spectacular buildings. Embellished with intricate stuccos , ornamental tiling and wood carvings, you don’t have to be an architecture buff to be blown away. Read more

Wonderful architecture👍🏻 a must see place in Marakesh

Beautiful building with a rich history and interesting anecdotes. Entrance fee is only 20 Dh.

This place used to be a school! Incredibly beautiful architecture and great photo ops

Don't miss the amazing onyx pillars in mihrab area. While walking around the small 4 m2 rooms remember that once students were living and studying in there.

Do use a guide who can share the rich history and make the place come alive. Go upstairs to see how the students lived.

Meticulous craftsmanship that has stood the test of time. Very much worth the visit.

Great architecture and history listen to someone who can share the history of the students and how they lived.

This is the best place to be if you are looking for colours, arabic architecture and amazing building. Great for photos shooting. Not expensive #Spezio www.spezio.blogspot.com

Amazing tile work , stucco and architecture . 10 DH admission - we navigated through the souk to find it. Wish the pool was filled. Beautiful

Open daily for a small entrance fee. Excellent example of stucco decoration.

Interesting architecture , definitely worth a visit

Beautiful architecture . Good location for some nice and funny pictures.

Old School in Marrakech for young students of the Quran. A place to visit

You could spend hours examining all the fine details in the architecture , walls doorways and ceilings

Better to take the ticket for Madersa+Musee for 60mad, it worth it!

Beautiful building. Buy the combination ticket with the Musee de Marrakesh.

Good museum , the traditional jewelry is cool

Beautiful but busy, go early

Currently under renovation.

Fabulous sight!

Gorgeous building.

A little hard to find!

Don't work in 2019.,still renovating... 😒

Just stunning

Die ehemalige koranschule ist wirklich beeindruckend und definitiv einen Besuch wert!

Es barato y merece la pena , subir a las habitaciones para una buena foto del patio .

Le bâtiment est beau, et grand. En revanche, aucune explication sur place , prevoir un guide ...

Muy reconendable visitarla para conocer como vivían los estudiantes del Corán en sus habitaciones y se refrescaban en el patio .

مبنى خلاب مع النقوش الاسلامية ينصح به للمهتمين بالتاريخ و العمارة الاسلامية

Molto bella e ben decorata . Il gioiello di Marracheck... Consiglio di visitare anche il museo accanto a questa scuola coranica .

Una pena que el interior del edificio no esté mejor conservado y no se recree como era la estancia de los estudiantes . Las 136 habitaciones están peladas, como en otros monumentos .

Arquitetura incrível

Magnifique bâtiment, dommage qu'il ait l'air d'être laissé à l'abandon.

Incantevole ex scuola coranica , è un palazzo ricco di preziosi intagli in legno e marmo .

Интересная экскурсия

Leuke plek om even snel wat foto’s te maken.

Es bueno relajarse un momento y contemplar los detalles de las paredes y columnas.

Merece la pena 100%! :)

Très chouette mais pas beaucoup d'indications sur les pièces que l'on visite
