The 10 Best Museums in Tunis, Tunis Governorate

February 16, 2022 Hector Krause

Founded by the Berbers in the 2nd millennium BCE, the city of Tunis has been controlled by Phoenicians, Romans, Arab Muslims, the Ottomans, the Spanish, the French and the Germans, finally achieving independence as the capital of Tunisia in 1956. This history has made Tunis a mélange of ancient and modern cultures. The medina is a network of narrow alleyways, mosques, mausoleums, palaces and a souq where shoppers haggle over the price of everything from filigreed gold to inexpensive souvenirs.

Spectacular Roman mosaics are the high point of this museum.

Reviewed By Ironsides2014 - Gladstone, United States

This museum is located in an 18th century royal palace. So many Roman mosaics and Statues. The mosaics are beautiful and a must see. There is a showcase with the bullet holes from the 2015 terrorist attack. Highly recommend this Museum.
