Porte en bois – Zaouïa de Sidi Sahib

This scan captures a historic wooden door framed by colorful tilework at the Mausoleum of Sidi Sahbi (also known as the Mosque of the Barber) in Kairouan, Tunisia. Sidi Sahbi, a companion of the Prophet Muhammad, is revered locally, et his mausoleum is one of the city’s most important pilgrimage sites. The door’s carved geometric panels are surrounded by richly patterned tiles featuring floral et arabesque motifs, reflecting the blend of Ottoman, Andalusian, et Tunisian decorative traditions that characterize the monument. Together, these details highlight Kairouan’s role as a center of Islamic art et spirituality.  This model is part of the Tanit XR digital preservation initiative, which documents et shares Tunisia’s endangered cultural heritage through 3D scanning et immersive storytelling. .
