Overview
There is no better way to soak up the charm of the ancient oriental-style city and discover its most hidden attractions than a leisurely stroll through its winding streets. In addition to its ancient and famous monuments such as the Great Mosque or the Ribat, the city has several hidden corners and buildings unknown even to the locals and whose originality may surprise you.
We will start with the Ribat, this fortress dating from the ninth century AD, a few years before the Great Mosque was built, which also began as a fortress before becoming a mosque in the middle of the same century (entrance fees not included). After the visit, we will begin our walk through the interior of the historic center passing by other minor religious buildings. We will reach the highest part of the city, which is still occupied today by the Kasbah (Alcazaba), a fortified palace and former seat and official residence of the governors of Sousse for centuries.
Today, the fortress houses the second archaeological museum of the country with a rich collection of Roman mosaics. Continue to the souks.
