Traditional museum of Kalaout el-Koubba  We do not know what purpose the Kalaout el-Koubba originally had; it dates back to the 11th or 12th century, and was built according to Fatimid architectural style. Both the exterior and interior are attractive, note especially the zigzag fluting of the cupola. It is the only of its kind on the African continent.Today, it is used mainly as a museum, where well-made presentations show life during Ottoman times.The museum is open Mon-Thu and Sat 9.30-13.00 and 15.00-17.30, and Sun 10.00-14.00. Entrance fee is 2TD, camera permit 1TD.
