The Ribat |
|
|
The 8th century Ribat had very solid-looking walls and round ramparts in its corners, and a round tower offering superb outlook for the entire medina, all the way to the Kasbah, and a bird's view of the lovely Grande Mosque, which was inaccessible for non-Muslims. It cost TND5 (€2.50) to enter the Ribat plus TND1 (€0.50) for the camera. I noticed that the structure was being used as a meeting spot for local visitors, who would relax on the walls and ramparts catching up on their gossip out of sight from others. The Ribat was in an excellent state of preservation, the best of all monastic fortresses in Tunisia.
