Dar Lasram

Dar Lasram is one of the palaces of the medina of Tunis.

The Lasram's, an aristocratic family of Tunis, descend from a Yemeni tribe settled in Kairouan.

Most of them were ministers of the Pen (Arabic: وزارة القلم, French: ministres de la Plume).

[1] One of them, Hamouda Lasram,[2] is a rich landowner and a khawaja of the Igawawen tribe (secretary of Berber cavalry regiments).

Dar Lasram, with a surface area of 2250 m2,[3] is a good example of a large traditional Tunisian residence.
