Is there an entry fee?

Yes — around 20 MAD for adults, half-price for children. Opening hours are typically 9am–4pm, closed Tuesdays. Confirm with the ticket window as hours shift seasonally.

Are labels in English?

Labels are mainly in Arabic and French, with some Spanish. A short English leaflet is sometimes available at the desk — if not, a guide is helpful for context on the costumes and wedding customs.

MUSEO ETNOGRÁFICO

The Ethnographic Museum of Tétouan occupies a former Spanish-era bastion adjoining Bab el-Oqla. Its collection covers the Hispano-Moroccan daily life the medina grew around — Andalusian embroidery, wedding costumes of the Jbala and Riffian hinterlands, silver jewellery, weapons, musical instruments, and reconstructed rooms showing a traditional bride's chamber and a domestic courtyard. A small Andalusian garden inside the ramparts gives sweeping views over the medina rooftops toward the Rif.

FAQs

45–60 minutes covers it comfortably. The rooms are intimate rather than sprawling, and the garden on the ramparts is worth the extra 10 minutes for the view over the medina.
