We didn't expect this 19th C cathedral to be of much interest, but discovered it has a wonderful organ with an organist playing fairly modern classical music (couldn't identify the composer) - just sat and listened for a bit.Great experience and a real surprise!

The cathedral is very grand but not often accessible. Its a bit confusing as to whether or not you can actually go inside. Every time I have tried to get inside its locked. So my comments only relate to the outside.

i suppose it's ok if you need a break from the noise and the hectic tunisian rhythm..
the only european feel in the city but it's very bland and fairly uninteresting..
