Djerba Traditional Heritage Museum, Heritage museum in Houmt Souk, Tunisia.
The Djerba Traditional Heritage Museum contains exhibits showcasing local customs through costumes, pottery, agricultural tools, and fishing equipment across multiple gallery spaces.
The museum occupies a former mausoleum from the 12th century, which was expanded in the 18th century by Djerba governor Hmida Ben Ayed.
The exhibition halls display traditional Jewish wedding attire, Islamic manuscripts, and local handicrafts, representing the diverse communities of Djerba island.
