Madrasa of Andaloussiya, Islamic educational institution in Medina of Tunis, Tunisia
The Madrasa of Andaloussiya features North African architectural elements with detailed tile work, wood carvings, and traditional Islamic design patterns throughout its structure.
Built in the 17th century, this educational center emerged during a period when Tunis established multiple madrasas to advance religious studies and academic knowledge.
The name Andaloussiya reflects the influence of Andalusian scholars who brought their educational methods and intellectual traditions to North Africa.
Located in the heart of the Medina of Tunis, the madrasa maintains its educational function while welcoming visitors interested in Islamic architecture.
The building contains a central courtyard designed for contemplation and study, incorporating elements that facilitate both learning and spiritual reflection.
