Djémila Museum
متحف جميلة
A small museum at the entrance to the ruins, famous for its large Roman mosaic panels that cover entire walls.
The Djemila Museum sits at the entrance to the site and displays statues, inscribed stone slabs, coins and pottery unearthed from the ancient city. The highlight is the large mosaics taken from aristocratic residences, which cover the gallery walls. Their subjects include Dionysus, sea gods and hunting scenes, and their colors are well preserved. Entry to the ruins usually includes the museum, or a small extra fee applies. It is worth visiting the museum before the site, as it helps you make sense of the city's layout.
