It is in this spirit that Targant houses the Museum of Argan dedicated to the argan tree,
the sole objective of which it is to strengthen communication efforts with a national and international
audience on this world heritage recognized by UNESCO as a unique and exception resource that contributes to its enhancement and protection.

In support of the Museum, the Targant Center, has been designed to introduce visitors
