The 19th century saw Marrakech recover a major political role, with a court rivaling in refinement.
Historical context
The Bahia Palace is the work of Ba Ahmed, strongman of the reign, who gathered the finest artisans for his wives and court.
Why it matters today
The palace remains an open-air manual of decorative art: zellige, stucco, painted ceilings, cedar wood.
What to notice on site
Compare the two great courtyards: one more official, the other more intimate. Look for motifs never repeated identically.
