Villa des Arts
Part of the ONA Foundation, one of Morocco's leading cultural foundations, the Villa des Arts is one of the largest museums in Casablanca and is located near the Parc de la Ligue Arabe. The Villa des Arts promotes contemporary arts within the framework of Moroccan culture and heritage, featuring approximately 800 permanent works of art as well as temporary exhibitions by international and contemporary artists. It offers a different perspective on Moroccan culture, and even the building itself is a beautiful piece of Art Deco architecture dating back to 1934. Hosting many cultural events, the Villa des Arts attracts both locals and tourists throughout the year.
King's Palace
Located near the new medina is yet another of the King's palaces. The King has a palace in almost every city, just in case of a royal visit. The King’s Palace in Casablanca is just as grand as the others, with its enormous open square in front, a surplus of guards, and a grand exterior that everyone can enjoy. Unfortunately, closer access seems difficult to come by, but it is worth seeing from the outside to admire the architecture.
