The remains of the Badii Palace is where gold, marble and onyx were traded for their weight in sugar by the most celebrated Saadian ruler, Ahmed el Mansour (1578 - 1603). All that remains are devastated mud walls that enclose a large square. all the onyx, marble and stucco were removed in 1696 on Moulay Ismail's orders to decorate his royal palaces in Meknes.
