This museum, which is free of charge, is the only museum in the country dedicated to soap. It was funded by the Audi Foundation, whose President Raymond Audi is one of Lebanon's largest bankers. Located in a medieval house of the 1895 th century, housed in soap shop in the 1950 th century and became the home of the Audi family from 1990 to, this place was remarkably renovated in the mid s. We discover the different stages in the manufacture of soap. Explanatory panels and a 10-minute film (Arabic subtitled in Arabic) provide the visitor with full information.

The ground floor of the house houses a café and a gift shop, open at the same time as the museum.

A faire !
La visite la plus intéressante de Saida. A noter que la visite est payante, un guide francophone est proposé pour la visite (compris dans le prix). Situé dans une ancienne usine de savon, le musée retrace les étapes de fabrication et présente des pièces antiques trouvées sur place. La boutique vend des savons libanais d'artisans respectant le savoir-faire traditionnel. Petit café à l'entrée.

Le musée est très bien fait, les explications claires on voit bien le processus de fabrication des différents savons. Nous avons acheté un savon à l'huile d'olive mais avons été très déçu. Rien à voir avec le savon d'Alep!

Le musée du Savon est un lieu très charmant et vaut vraiment le détour lorsque l'on passe par Saida! Nous avons eu droit à une visite guidée personnelle en français très complète retraçant les techniques de fabrication du savon et les différents savons produit. Très intéressant et ça sent bon! :) La boutique est à ne pas rater, surtout pour faire des cadeaux de savons artisanaux made in Lebanon!
A noter que le musée n'est pas gratuit (5000LL par personne).
