Dar Lasram, Historical palace in Medina, Tunisia

The palace spans 2250 square meters across multiple floors, featuring intricate stucco work, painted ceilings, and Neo-doric capitals throughout its structure.

Between 1812 and 1819, wealthy landowner Hamouda Lasram constructed this palace after acquiring and demolishing several neighboring buildings in the area.

The palace maintains traditional Tunisian residential architecture with separate spaces for family members, service areas, and guest accommodations on different levels.

The Association de Sauvegarde de la Médina and Tahar Haddad Club share the palace space, making it accessible for various community functions.

The palace displays floral arabesque motifs on its ceilings and contains detailed sculptural decorations that represent 19th-century Islamic craftsmanship.
