Dar Chaabane

Dar Chaabane (full name Dar Chaabane El Fehri) is a town and a commune in the Nabeul Governorate, Tunisia on the coast of Cap Bon.

Covering 3,500 hectares, Dar Chaabane is one of the biggest towns of the peninsula of Cap Bon.

In the year 334 AH (10th century), Ahmed Fehri El Ansari, a native of Seguia el-Hamra in Morocco, settled a few kilometers away from Dar Chaabane and married a descendant of the commander Mechmech.

With the newcomers, their progeny later founded the town of Zaouiet El Fehri.

Dar Chaabane's history is linked to the arrival of Andalusian Moors, expelled from Spain during the Reconquista in the 15th century.
