The carpenter and cabinetmaker sector (nejjarine in Arabic) is certainly one of the most beautiful urban and architectural complexes in Fez. With its 17th century fountain decorated with zelliges, Nejjarine Square offers a pleasant stop after a long stroll. At the bottom of the square, the Nejjarine foundouk, which was in use until the beginning of the 20th century, is worth a visit. The carpenters' souk is an opportunity to appreciate the work of craftsmen carving wood. Going along the museum on the left, you reach the Sidi Moussa tannery, which is smaller than the one in Chouara.

La place Nejjarine et sa fontaine fassie constituent un lieu plein de charme et un bel ensemble architectural. La visite du Foundouk est très intéressante. On peut ensuite admirer la dextérité des artisans !

Le foundouk Nejjarine est maintenant un musée consacré "aux arts et métiers du bois" Sur trois niveaux, il propose un tour d'horizon complet de l'utilisation du bois au Maroc depuis les plaquettes recouvertes de textes juridiques jusqu'aux splendides portes sculptées des palais et autres medersas. Un lieu très calme, avec un accès à la terrasse (petit café) qui offre un belle vue sur les toits de tuiles vernissées de la mosquée Karaouiyne. Les photos ne pas autorisés pour les objets exposés, mais elles le sont pour le patio du bâtiment qui est superbe. Entrée en 2017 : 20 Dh

The Nejjarine complex is more easily accessible from the lower part of the medina (at the beginning of the place R' Cif or the place Lalla Yaddouna) but if you are not afraid to walk a little, you can also get there from the upper part of the medina, via the Bab Boujloub and one of the two main road of the median: the talaa Sghira and the talaa Kbira.
