Lonely Planet review for Medersa el-Attarine

Founded by Abu Said in 1325 in the heart of the medina, the Medersa el-Attarine was designed as a separate annexe to the Kairaouine Mosque. Halls for teaching and a modest masjid flank the central courtyard. Displaying the traditional patterns of Merenid artisanship, the zellij (tilework) base, stuccowork and cedar wood at the top of the walls and on the ceiling are every bit as elegant as the artistry of the Medersa Bou Inania.
