    Mausoleum of Mohammed V

    Near the Le Tour Haasan [Hassan Tower], stands the marble Mausoleum of Mohammed V, built in traditional Moroccan style. The present king’s father (the late Hassan II) and grandfather have been laid to rest here. The decoration, despite the patterned zellij and carved plaster, gives off an air of tranquillity. Visitors to the mausoleum must be respectfully dressed, and can look down into the tomb from a gallery.
