The Great Mosque is the symbol of Kairouan. It is one of the oldest mosques in the world and one of the most beautiful, one of the most impressive monuments in all of the Maghreb! Its religious prestige makes Kairouan the 4th holiest city in Islam. We admire its imposing minaret, its majestic courtyard of impressive dimensions, surrounded by superbly designed arcades and housing a sundial, and the tall, richly carved cedar wood doors. ​They open onto the prayer rooms, decorated with dozens of marble columns. Built in 670, this architectural masterpiece, whose appearance evokes an adobe fortress, inspired other mosques in the Maghreb.

The Kairouan medina is one of the most preserved and authentic in Tunisia, where you can take a look in the souks, taste Kairouan's pastries "Les Mekroudhs" and its artisanal carpet manufacturing.
