Madrasa of El Yusefiya, Islamic school in Medina, Tunis, Tunisia.
The Madrasa of El Yusefiya features traditional North African architectural elements, including decorated walls, covered courtyards, and dedicated prayer halls.
Located at 29 Es Sabbaghine Street, the madrasa underwent relocation from its original position near the Kasbah during the Ottoman period.
The institution served as a center for Islamic education, where students focused on religious sciences and law under the guidance of scholars.
During the 1920s, the madrasa expanded its student capacity from 21 to 39 to address accommodation needs for Al-Zaytuna students.
The poet Aboul-Qacem Echebbi studied at this madrasa, which later became a refuge during the events of March 15, 1954.
