The Best Stops for Crafts, Culture, Shopping, and Drinks in Fez

"Don’t miss a visit to Fondouk el-​Nejjarine, a three-story caravansary (or trader's inn) turned woodworking museum — the architecture alone would be enough to warrant a visit, with a central courtyard where caravans once stopped to rest. Exhibitions featuring elaborately carved dowry chests, doors, and furniture offer a glimpse at the intricacy of Moroccan carpentry over thousands of years." - Travel + Leisure Editors

Nejjarine Museum of Wooden Arts & Crafts

The museum has several floors historical wooden artifacts of all descriptions from children's toys to musical instruments Quranic verses on ancient wood, cabinets, doors, etc. Photos of these objects are not permitted so the photos here are up the building itself which is quite beautiful and has a tea garden on the rooftop which is really worth visiting for its character and also for the rooftop views. Entry is just MAD 20. Closing time is 5:00 p.m. There are identifying plates next to each object in Arabic, French and English. But the experience could be greatly enhanced by short videos on how the wood was worked or more detailed explanatory materials.

Very important and cool museum. If you want to understand the historical craftsmanship of the Moroccan people, then this is the beat start. Great location aswell, easy to find. The place is stunning and deserves a visit. The entry fee is only 20 dh which is affordable. The exhibition in itself is well enough. Nothing to staggering about the artefacts. The architecture of the building is though, amazing.

A whole museum dedicated to wood and wood work spread over four levels. All exhibits have English and French descriptions. The museum building is over 300 years old and has served a number of purposes including as a police station in the 1940s!

I am a disabled traveler, and can walk around without a lot of difficulty but stairs, on the other hand, that is another story. It would be great if this place offered demonstrations various items that are available on the main level because getting in is not that difficult, the stairs to get up to the fourth floor in the tea room in the roof not attainable easily. There is no elevator.. I don't expect these older buildings to be accommodating by putting an elevator, they could certainly charge more by offering demonstrations of various things on the main levels. So far we've got them too. Most places without me having to pay cuz I'm visibly.. One of the places we went to asked for the certificate of disability. Myself and my friend just pointed to me and said you can see he is disabled and he finally agreed!

Absolutely stunning building with nice wooden artifacts exhibition, but in my opinion the building is the more interesting part. Once you find the place in the middle of the Medina.

Nice place for a visit, make sure to go up to the terrace as the views are great from there. We did get hounded outside by kids who wanted to be our guides... Just politely decline, ignore and keep walking 🙂

A museum that is worth visiting. You can pay for the ticket at the entrance (20DH). Can't take pictures in the exhibitions but the information was very interesting and amazed by some of the craft works. It has a tea room and a lovely terrace which you can overlook part of the old town from it.

Beautiful! It used to be a resting spot back in the days for the traders coming from different countries. The main courtyard was for "horse parking", while the small rooms surrounding the buildings are supposed to be the motel room for the traders to rest. Now they convert it into a wooden museum showcasing all the ancient wooden knick knacks that were used back in the days.
