Ghardimaou

Ghardimaou (Tunisian Arabic: غار الدماء) is a town in the north-west of Tunisia about 192 km from Tunis.

The rail line from Tunis passing along the Medjerda river ends at Ghardimou; it was built in 1878,[citation needed] and formerly crossed westwards the border into Algeria.

The museum of the "common Tunisio-Algerian Remembrance" ("mémoire commune tuniso-algérienne") was opened in 2005 and describes the national struggle for independence.

[citation needed] Ghardimaou was referenced in the biography of British personality Joseph McKeown, described as “the place where [his] heart lies”.

McKeown has been a vocal fan of Ghardimaou, talking fondly of his love for the town at numerous public events.
