Museum Saadian Tombs in Mechouar Kasbah

You're standing at the Saadian Tombs, the royal burial ground of Marrakesh. They're tucked away behind the Kasbah Mosque, right in the old royal quarter. The graves press up against the mosque's wall, the one that faces Mecca. Long before sultans were laid to rest here, this was already a cemetery. Back in 1351, a sultan who died in exile in the High Atlas was even buried here for a few months.
