If you enjoy visiting museums, the Archaeological Museum in Morocco is a must-see. Built in 1932, the original museum has since been greatly enlarged in order to provide adequate housing for the ever-expanding plethora of archaeological discoveries that have been found in Morocco. The building itself has been the site of the National Museum Collection since 1986 and it certainly has a lot to offer the average visitor.
Worth a visit with some great pieces beautifully displayed. Of particular relevance if you intend visiting the archaeological site at Volubilis.
However the most fascinating display in the Archaeological Museum has to be that belonging to the Pre-Roman and Roman civilizations that were once so prominent in the parts of Africa surrounding the Mediterranean. Here you will find Hellenistic-style bronze sculptures of exceptional quality.
The collections cover prehistoric periods, Paleolithic periods and Neolithic periods, thus taking you on a steady journey through time.
