Souk El Kammadine

The souk used to be located in Zuqaq El Marr (or Nahj El Bey) but then it was changed[1] to the southern part of path of Adoul.

And it used to reach Sidi Ali Karray Street and Rahbet Rmed.

[2] The name Kammadine was derived from the verb Kamada (to poultice) which means to shorten a dress.

The poultice is considered one of the most important traditional productions in the medina of Sfax and other towns.

[2] According to El Bakry, in the medieval centuries Souk El Kammadine's artisans were very active and were known for their high quality products.
