Medina of Tunis

Sensory immersion in the souks: A real maze organized by trades, the Medina travels to the rhythm of incense and leather scents. Don’t miss the Perfumers’ Souk (El Attarine), adjacent to the majestic Great Zitouna Mosque, the spiritual and intellectual centre of the city. A crossroads of cultures: Walking through its narrow streets allows us to understand the influence of the Andalusian, Ottoman and Hafsid civilizations that shaped Tunis’ unique identity.

The largest collection of mosaics in the world: The museum is world famous for its exceptionally fine Roman pavements. You can admire masterpieces like the famous Virgil mosaic listening to the muses or the monumental Triumph of Neptune. A journey through the millennia: The museum journey takes you from Prehistory to Islamic times, through the Punic, Christian and Vandal periods. Each room testifies to Tunisia’s strategic position in the Mediterranean.
