Safeguarding Kairouan
This stamp supports the international campaign for the preservation of Kairouan, the fourth holiest city of Islam and listed as a world heritage site. The illustration juxtaposes the minaret of the Great Mosque of Oqba with figures of medieval scholars framed by a compass, symbolizing the alliance between faith, architecture and science. The message underlines the universal importance of the city as a center of intellectual and spiritual influence. This is a call for solidarity for the conservation of historical monuments which forge the collective memory and pride of Tunisia.
