Kasbah of Chefchaouen
15th-century fortress with an ethnographic museum and gardens
The Kasbah of Chefchaouen is a late 15th-century rammed-earth fortress on Plaza Uta el-Hammam, built at the town's founding and reinforced with ten towers. Its walled compound now houses an ethnographic museum of local crafts, costume and daily life, a shaded interior garden courtyard, and old prison cells. From the ramparts you get raised views over the blue medina and the Rif Mountains beyond.
