Museum sights in Rabat

  1. Museum of Science and Nature

    This museum lies squirreled away in the government administrative buildings. The museum explains the history of the earth's geology but is most noted for the reconstructed skeleton of the giant dinosaur Atlasaurus imelakei (Giant Lizard of the Atlas) found in the High Atlas in 1979. The massive beast measured 15m long and roamed the earth 165 million years ago.

    Musée des Oudaia

    The Kasbah des Oudaias, itself is a grand 17th-century affair built by Moulay Ismail, now houses the Musée des Oudaia - the national jewellery museum with a beautifully displayed and fascinating collection of prehistoric, Roman and Islamic jewellery found in the different regions of Morocco.

  3. B

    Salle des Bronzes

    You'll find ceramics, statuary and artefacts from the Roman settlements at Volubilis, Lixus and Chellah on display. Look out for the beautiful head of Juba II and the unforgiving realism of the bust of Cato the Younger - both found at Volubilis.
