On cliffs overlooking the Atlantic. Cubist tombstones with Amazigh design elements. The wind never stops.

Perhaps the most beautiful Jewish cemetery in Morocco.

It sits on cliffs overlooking the Atlantic, just outside the city gates. The tombstones are distinctive — cubist forms with Amazigh design elements, unlike any other Jewish cemetery in the world. A hybrid aesthetic that could only have been made here, by this community, in this particular place where Berber, Jewish, and Atlantic cultures collided.

Extremely well kept. The wind never stops.
