Example Session 3
ElJem - Originally planned to house a large collection of mosaics discovered in 1960 and 1961, the El Jem Museum was completed and opened to the public in 1970, bringing to an end the extensive dispersion of the archeological remains from Thysdrus that had until then been divided among the Bardo, Sousse and Sfax museums. Inspired by the design of the Roman house, the museum comprises three large exhibition rooms and a reception area, surrounding a central courtyard with a garden and peristyle.
