Description
This stamp illustrates the majestic citadel of Kélibia (Borj Kélibia), one of the most important fortresses of Cap Bon. The visual highlights its strategic position overlooking the Mediterranean, recalling its past as a sentinel monitoring the Sicily Canal. The massive architecture of its ramparts bears witness to successive layers of history, from the Punic era to Ottoman developments. The stamp celebrates the Tunisian military heritage and the coastal identity of the region, where the azure blue of the sea meets the golden stone of the defensive bastions.
