Is this where time takes a detour? The Sidi Moussa Tannery, tucked away in the heart of Fes, seems to think so. This isn’t just a place where leather is made. It’s a time capsule. Imagine, if you will, the early 12th century. The Rawd al-Qirtas, a chronicle of those times, mentions the Sidi Moussa Tannery. This makes it one of the oldest tanneries, not just in Fes, but possibly in the world. The air here is thick with the scent of history, a blend of earthiness and tradition that has lingered for centuries. Cowhides, once destined for other purposes, find new life here. They are transformed into supple leather through a process that has remained largely unchanged. The Sidi Moussa Tannery, a testament to the enduring spirit of craftsmanship, stands as a vibrant reminder of Fes’s rich heritage.
