Cute little pottery museum. It has no English text, only French and Arabic, so had to translate it with a translator app on my phone. It is quite small, with about 4 rooms that you walk through in a circle for 30-40 minutes to see all. But the collection is nice. Entrance was 20 D. It’s the second building as shown on google maps. The gate closest to it was open, all others were closed when I visited.
Nice little museum created by the OCP. Located in a gorgeous complex which contains the music and art institutes of the coty of Safi. For those interested in the ceramic history of the region and other parts of the country should visit. The practice was aledgely introduced by the Phoenicians in 70bc. If you read the descriptions posted (which are in arabic and French only by the way), you'd learn even more interesting influences from other cultures.
