The mansion Dar Si Said is situated in the lower Medina, close to its larger equivalent - the Bahia Palace. It was built in the 19th century by Si Said, minister of War under the regency of his brother Grand Vizier Ba Ahmed. It is a beautiful building made of two riads, pooled courtyards, surrounded by lemon trees, palms, and flowers and is home to a regional museum. The Big Riad has original Moorish Andalusian decorations and are a great testimony of 19th century luxury. The museum's main focal points is its current collection of woodwork from various origins, some dating as far back as 1000 years. It also displays jewelry, carpets, weaponry, musical instruments, pottery, ceramics, and some traditional wedding chairs from the Berber regions. The entrance fee is 20MAD.
