This stamp highlights the action of the Association for the Protection of the Medina of Tunis and underlines the importance of preserving urban and human heritage. The illustration combines traditional architecture, social life and cultural transmission, showing the medina as a living space where generations, know-how and collective memory intersect. The message conveyed by this image emphasizes shared responsibility in the protection of historic centers in the face of urban change. In the Tunisian context, this stamp reflects an institutional and citizen awareness of the heritage value of the medinas, considered not only as an architectural heritage, but also as the identity, social and cultural heart of the nation.
