Dar Cherait Museum

The Dar Cherait Museum features ten reconstructed rooms displaying traditional Tunisian life through mannequins wearing period costumes within a bourgeois palace setting.

Founded in 1990 as Tunisia's first private museum, the institution closed in 2011 due to financial issues during the revolution but reopened in December 2014.

The museum exhibits include authentic reconstructions of daily life scenes, from the Bey's quarters to traditional hammams, alongside collections of regional jewelry and pottery.

Located near Tozeur's palm grove, the museum operates from 8:00 AM to midnight, with modified hours during Ramadan from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM to midnight.

Each evening, the museum presents a 45-minute sound and light show featuring Oriental tales including One Thousand and One Nights and Aladdin.
