Description
This stamp depicts the Beni Mtir dam in the governorate of Jendouba, an architectural and technical masterpiece dating from the colonial era. Its particular buttress design, visible in the illustration, makes it one of the most beautiful dams in the country, nestled in a region of forests and mountains. By highlighting this building, the stamp underlines the crucial role of hydraulic infrastructure in flood regulation and electricity production. It also bears witness to the rich landscape of north-west Tunisia, where water and forest combine to form an exceptional natural heritage.
