Introduction

Kasbah Taourirt was the former power centre of the Glaoui clan at Ouarzazate, a cluster of ochre-earth and date-palm-wood built along the trade route. Intricate geometric mud-carving and towering towers form the oldest vestibule before Morocco's southern 'city of cinema'. Maze-like rooms and granaries record the wealth and power network of the Glaoui family at its height.
