Sfax, Tunisia - Rue des Notaires (Street of Notaries): A Glimpse into the Past of a Vibrant North African City This photograph, taken circa 1909, offers a rare glimpse into the rich history and culture of Sfax, Tunisia's second-largest city. Nestled in the heart of the old medina, the Rue des Notaires, or Notaries' Street, was once a bustling hub of commercial and administrative activity. The image showcases the narrow, cobblestone street, lined with traditional North African houses, their facades adorned with intricate, colorful tilework and wrought iron balconies. The street's name derives from the notaries' offices that once occupied the ground floors of these buildings, where legal documents were prepared and signed, playing a crucial role in the city's economic and social life. The scene is further enlivened by the presence of people going about their daily business. Men in traditional Tunisian garb, including the iconic red fez, can be seen conversing in small groups, while women in long, flowing robes and headscarves carry baskets on their heads, likely on their way to the market. The photograph not only captures the architectural beauty of Sfax but also the vibrant energy and rich cultural heritage that defines this North African city. The Rue des Notaires stands as a testament to the city's storied past, inviting us to imagine the lives of its inhabitants and the stories that unfolded on its streets over a century ago.
