TheMausoleum of Sidi Harazem orMarabout of Sidi Harazem is a funerary monument and shrine inFez,Morocco.[1] It is located in theBab Ftouh Cemetery, one of the city's largest historic cemeteries. It contains the tomb ofSidi 'Ali ibn Harazem (also spelled Harazim or Harzihim), a 12th-centurySufi mystic who died in 1164–65.[2][3]
His mausoleum, marked by a green pyramidal roof, is the most prominent structure of the cemetery, one section of which is named after him.[2][4] The founder of theAlaouite dynasty,Moulay Rashid, was buried here in the 17th century.[3] The current structure was built (or rebuilt) by SultanMohammed ibn Abdallah in the late 18th century.[3] The tomb of Sidi Harazem is still the subject of a popularmoussem (religious festival) every spring and his tomb was historically involved in other popular religious rituals and events.[2][4] The mausoleum was recently restored in the mid-2010s by the local conservation agency ADER-Fès.[5]
