The Mellah in Marrakech is a term used to describe an area of residents of Jewish origin. The Mellah was essentially composed of riads, fondouks or caravansérail, commercial streets or souks, and synagogues. A place of business and trade where all the professions prohibited to Arabs were represented and where all products were found. The Mellah in Marrakech stands as a monument to the tolerance and coexistence that are possible if those in power believe in it. A popular tourist destination where travellers frequently visit to explore the cultural sites of old Mellah like the ancestral synagogues, the Jewish cemetery, and tinsmiths’ square and the many spice and artisanal souks.
