The national cultural map places the National Public Museum of Islamic Calligraphy on Place de l’Émir-Abdelkader, in the Sidi Abi El Hassen Mosque. This institution is separate from the Museum of Islamic Archaeology of Tlemcen.
A place devoted to the art of writing
The official designation on the cultural map confirms the museum’s calligraphic focus. However, the available information provides neither a reliable inventory of the works on display nor a precise description of the current visitor route. No manuscript, artist or workshop is therefore listed without supporting evidence.
Before your visit
Confirm whether the museum is open, which exhibition is accessible and what visitor arrangements apply. The address on Place de l’Émir-Abdelkader helps distinguish this venue from the institution on Rue des Frères Abdeldjebbar.
