The museum is outside the amphitheatre and has a reconstructed roman villa all built with the same materials as the original, together with a number or original artifacts and mosaics. It has been all put together with a lot of care and attention and provides a superb "living"…
Give yourself lots of time to view the museum and villa. The mosaics are amazing and the reconstructed Africa House villa give an indication of the splendorous place it must have been.
Visited this before we went to the collisium, and glad we did. Fascinating place with just beautiful mosaics, had a interesting guide who gave us all the history. Well worth a visit!
Just when I thought I had my full of mosaics at the Bardo, I realized I could happily see more. There were so many rooms of different types of mosaics and other items found in the vicinity. Once you venture out back and see the Africa House and commoner homes, your experience is…
Visited this museum after our visit to the coleseum, in the morning. Our party (5) were the only people there! A tourist must, without the tourists! It really is a beautiful place, especially the excavated Roman city and the mosiacs. A must do if coming to Tunisia!
