Maison culturelle du tapis

Museum - Workshop - Rooftop 

Institution dedicated to the preservation and transmission of Moroccan textile heritage.

Our story

Maison Culturelle du Tapis is a cultural institution dedicated to the preservation, transmission, and celebration of Moroccan textile heritage.

Nestled within a historic riad in the heart of the Medina of Marrakech, Maison Culturelle du Tapis explores the richness of Moroccan weaving traditions through an approach combining research, cultural transmission, and immersive experiences.

The museum engages in an in-depth exploration of Berber symbols, their interpretations, and their role as an ancestral visual language transmitted from generation to generation through weaving. Each motif, color, and composition reflects a collective memory connected to identity, spirituality, protection, and the daily life of Morocco’s weaving communities.

Through its collections, exhibitions, and immersive weaving workshops, Maison Culturelle du Tapis pays tribute to Moroccan women weavers — the true guardians of this ancestral craftsmanship — whose hands have preserved a remarkable living heritage for centuries.

More than a museum, Maison Culturelle du Tapis is envisioned as a living space for cultural transmission, dedicated to safeguarding and celebrating Morocco’s textile heritage.
