Dar Bach Hamba, 17th century palace in Medina of Tunis, Tunisia.
The palace presents a classical design with a central patio surrounded by four richly decorated rooms with porticoes on northern and eastern sides.
The palace changed ownership from the Rassa family to the Naccache family before Ahmed Bach Hamba purchased it in 1789 during Hammuda ibn Ali's reign.
The palace contains numerous rooms decorated with traditional Mediterranean architectural elements, reflecting the influence of Islamic artistry and craftsmanship.
Located in the southern quarters of Tunis Medina, visitors can access the palace through two entrances on Kouttab el Ouzir Street and Bach Hamba Street.
The L'Art Rue association currently operates in the palace, organizing children's artistic workshops, concerts, and creative residencies to promote local heritage.
