"A Hundred-Year-Old Photographic Archive This delightful gallery is housed in one of Marrakech 's elegant Saadian town houses, all creamy white plaster walls and subtle bejmat (unglazed terra-cotta) tiled floors. It's the perfect setting for what began as owner-creators Hamid Mergani and Patrick Manac’h’s private and extensive collection of photographs that document scenes and portraits of Moroccan life over the past century. Today the foundation encompasses a whole lot more, with numerous collectors and photographers such as Daniel Chicault, Ana Muller, and Jean-Pierre Évrard donating or loaning from their own collections. There’s also a terrific little café on the roof for traditional Berber cooking and splendid views of the Atlas Mountains."

This place is amazing and highly worth a visit, there are stunning exhibitions of different photos as well as films everywhere. There is also a rooftop cafe that is taller than the other buildings and has a lovely view. Under 15s go in free, and there is great value for adult tickets. Thanks for a lovely time :)

One of the nicest things we did in Marrakesh, especially if you are a photographer or even just want a glimpse of what it was all like over the past 150 years and understand the complexity’s of the indigenous berber/ Amazir communities…Genuinely loved this place and a perfect break from the usual Marrakesh energy… the cafe upstairs is really tasty and has a lovely view… got recommended by a long time Marrakesh head and would recommend as well

An interesting find filled with beautiful photography and history. There are multiple floors and rooms to look through. There is a shop when you enter/exit that sells prints. Be sure to also check out the terrace on the roof and relax with a coffee/tea

The House of Photography (Maison de la Photographie) is an absolute gem and a welcome escape from the vibrant energy of Marrakech. What a wonderful find! Beyond the fascinating collection of historical and contemporary Moroccan photography – which is truly inspiring, especially for anyone with an interest in photography – the real highlight for me was the rooftop terrace. It offers a lovely view across the rooftops of the Medina, providing a peaceful spot to sit and relax. The food and tea served on the roof were delicious and reasonably priced. It was such a treat to enjoy a quiet moment with a refreshing mint tea and a tasty bite while soaking in the atmosphere. If you're looking for a quiet place to unwind amidst the wonderful chaos of Marrakech and want to see some beautiful and thought-provoking photographs, the House of Photography is a must-visit. I left feeling inspired and refreshed. Highly recommended!

If you wanna catch some amazing views of the Marrakesh rooftops and the Atlas Mountains, this is the spot. Super good vibes, laid-back atmosphere — perfect place to just relax. Visited a while ago but still remember.

Maison de la Photographie was a true gem in Marrakech. The exhibition was beautifully curated, offering a fascinating glimpse into Moroccan history and culture through stunning photography. The building itself is charming, and the rooftop café offers a lovely view over the medina. A peaceful and inspiring stop — highly recommended for anyone visiting the city.

A nice attraction with some interesting history and stunning photography. Views from the cafe are lovely. We didn’t eat here but food looked good.

A small collection of old black and white photographs displayed in a nice old riad. You can cover the museum in probably 30 minutes. What is worth staying on for is their rooftop terrace which has nice views over Marrakech with the Atlas mountains in the distance. They serve snacks and drinks.
