Tunis Religious Heritage

Tunis's religious landscape reflects centuries of diverse cultural influences. The Medina houses the 8th-century Al-Zaytuna Mosque, the city's oldest, alongside the Ottoman-style Sidi Mahrez Mosque. European architectural styles appear in the Neo-Byzantine Cathedral of St. Vincent de Paul and the decommissioned Saint Louis Cathedral on Byrsa Hill. From the 13th-century Hafsid Kasbah Mosque to modern landmarks in Carthage, these sites illustrate the architectural evolution and spiritual history of the Tunisian capital.
