Dar Cherait Museum
متحف دار شريط
A private museum built in the style of a traditional palace. It displays Tunisian aristocratic life, costumes, jewelry and folk traditions, with a One Thousand and One Nights themed venue nearby.
Dar Cherait was founded by a local hotelier. Its courtyard-style building recreates rooms showing a traditional Tunisian wedding, a kitchen and a bey's court, with pottery, jewelry and traditional costumes on display. In the same complex, Medina des Mille et une Nuits (the Medina of One Thousand and One Nights) uses sets and lighting to bring Arabian tales to life, which makes it good for families. Tickets are charged separately for each section, about 10 to 20 dinars. The museum is in the hotel zone, about a 15-minute walk from the old town.
