    A nice synagogue open to the public. Ticket price is very reasonable. Simple but moving place. Nice courtyard. You will also find some outer rooms with exhibits. Free toilet facilities with no attendants which is great. You can also access the balcony and gallery on the first floor. This place is worth a visit.

    We visited this ancient synagogue in which the congregation was formed in circa 1492. As I understand, I believe it is the oldest synagogue/congregation on the African continent. It has also served as an institution for learning and has continuously served as a place of prayer for more than 500 continuous years. I enjoyed reading that the young children (around age 5/6) were sent down from the Atlas Mountains and were learning to read and write Torah and lessons with honey on a brush. They would then lick the paper to ingest the meaning and have a sweet moment, too! 🍯

    The Slat Azama Synagogue is a beautiful, calm, and deeply spiritual place. It reflects the long history of coexistence and openness in Morocco, where Jewish communities found a new home after their expulsion from Europe. Walking through its courtyard and prayer rooms, you can genuinely feel the respect and shared heritage between Jewish and Muslim cultures in this part of the world.
