BERT FLINT COLLECTION - MUSÉE TISKIWIN

The Musée Tiskiwin is a beautiful double riad in Marrakech containing the private collection of ethnological objects belonging to Dutch collector Bert Flint who lived in the riad during the 50s and 60s. This small, dusty, and appealingly quirky museum leads visitors on a journey from Tuareg artifacts of the Sahara to the talismanic Berber adornments of the Atlas Mountains. Despite being around the corner from the Musée Dar Si Saïd, the way is poorly signed and it is easy to get lost en route; follow the signs on Rue Riad Zitoun el-Jedid instead.
