About Tetouan Archaeological Museum

The Archaeological Museum of Tetouan presents finds from northern Morocco, with material associated with prehistoric, classical and later periods. Collections described by the National Museum Foundation include objects from Tamuda, Lixus and other regional sites. A museum visit complements a separate trip to Tamuda itself, but the museum and archaeological site should not be conflated. Verify exhibits, hours and entry requirements on the museum’s official page before presenting logistical details.
