This stately mosque, a fine example of pure Moroccan architecture, is the only one in the city that non-Muslims may visit.
Although the ticket is a bit expensive and you must follow the visit schedule tightly, it is worth visiting as the indoor design is beautiful and attractive and the guided tour provides useful information. If you don't want to pay the entrance fee, you can also take nice pictures in the square, which is also impressive.

I often come to Azemmour from my home in El Jadida for a wander around the Ancienne Medina and have passed by the shrine on numerous occasions but have never managed to find anyone to let me in. Last November, I was in luck. I was showing an American friend around the town and we met one of the young musicians who performs at the Prive restaurant in Jadida. He lives virtually next to the shrine and he said he could find someone to let us in. Fair enough, he spoke to a guy who had some keys and we entered the sanctuary. Unfortunately neither my acquaintance nor the key bearer knew much about the history of the saint or the shrine and the elderly Jewess who is sometimes present by arrangement was not in evidence that day. The shrine comprises of several rooms, some subterranean, containing artifacts and books in Hebrew. It is maintained by a charitable Jewish foundation which also owns the land above the cave and which the guardian confirmed will build a retreat and hostel for pilgrims there - we saw evidence of the starting of that work. Outside the shrine, there's a well-tended square with a view over the river. We certainly didn't get any hassle from children or vendors either around the building or anywhere in Azemmour at all. It's a sad visit nonetheless to think that vibrant, integrated and established Jewish communities were lured from Morocco by false promises leaving just a few of their community behind with their treasured edifices and traditions. This contribution to Moroccan life cannot be erased, fortunately. It's certainly worth a visit, especially if you can get in. My visitor friend tipped the guardian 20 dirhams. This might grease the hinges of the door for future visitors if they do the same.

A magnificent modern Catholic church with high walls, simple structure, and magnificent walls of vibrant stained-glass—not just windows—walls! It was built i1929-59 by two French architects. It was incredible!
