Musée du Judaïsme Marocain
Casablanca, Morocco
This museum, dedicated to the culture of Moroccan Jews, was built on the remains of a demolished Jewish orphanage. It contains three exhibition areas, a multi-functional space, an audio library, and a small hall. Some walls were preserved to allow those who had lived there to relate to the new building. Standard concrete and block construction techniques were used for the new building.
