Jewish Heritage of Rabat - Transfer to Fez

Explore the historical and cultural treasures of Rabat, Morocco's capital, with a special focus on its Jewish heritage. Begin in the Royal Palace area, a 19th-century landmark reflecting the city’s administrative significance. Continue to the Necropolis of Chellah, a 14th-century site that blends Islamic architecture with Roman ruins from Sala Colonia, including artifacts that speak to the diverse communities that once thrived here. Visit the Kasbah Oudaya, known for its tranquil Andalusian gardens, and the History Museum, where a tombstone with Hebrew inscriptions from the Roman site of Volubilis highlights Morocco’s long-standing Jewish presence. Conclude at the Mausoleum of King Mohamed V, a revered figure among Moroccan Jews for protecting the Jewish community during World War II. There will be plenty of time for you to have lunch in one of the many restaurants before you travel through picturesque agricultural plains to the historic city of Fez, a city rich in Jewish cultural landmarks.
