This workshop offers a truly rare experience — a chance to step inside a living piece of Moroccan history. Guided by the last traditional mule saddle craftsman of Chefchaouen, you’ll witness an ancient skill that has survived for centuries and take part in it with your own hands. The experience takes place inside a 16th-century Fendak, one of Chefchaouen’s oldest caravanserais. This historic building has been home to the mule saddle craft since the city’s early years, carrying the spirit of countless generations who relied on these handcrafted saddles to travel across the rugged Rif Mountains. Over the course you will: • Learn about the origins and cultural importance of mule saddle craftsmanship in Moroccan mountain life. • Practice weaving, shaping, and assembling techniques using natural wool, leather, and traditional tools. • Observe the fine details of this craft as the artisan demonstrates skills rarely seen today. • Connect with the craftsman over Moroccan tea, stories, and the living heritage of the Fendak. By joining, you support a local artisan, contribute to keeping this heritage alive, and walk away with an unforgettable experience found nowhere else.
