On display in the El Badii palace, the minbar (pulpit) from the Koutoubia Mosque was made in Cordoba in the 12C and transported piece by piece to Marrakech. This superb work is adorned with geometrical figures interlaced with floral motifs in typical Andalusian marquetry style. Brought out at prayer time every Friday until 1962, it was then meticulously restored to its original splendour.
