Ancienne synagogue de Ouarzazate
A testimony to southern Morocco's Judeo-Berber heritage
About this site
A witness to the historic presence of Berber Jewish communities in the oases of southern Morocco, the former synagogue of Ouarzazate is part of the region's lesser-known religious heritage, alongside the kasbahs and ksour that dominate the city's touristic image. It recalls the confessional diversity that long characterized the oasis communities of the Moroccan pre-Sahara.
