Monastir attractions and sightseeing
- Ribat. This fortified monestry is located next to the sea and provides a great visit with most of the ruins open to clamber over. It may be familiar as it has been used in several films as a stand in for Jerusalem, most notably "Monty Python's Life of Brian".
- Mausoleum of Bourguiba. In the center of a large cemetery is this enormous mausoleum.
