This mausoleum is devoted to the husseinites sovereigns who succeeded from Ali Pasha II in the th century. Surmounted by domes, the rooms in this vast building have a rich Spanish-Italian decor. They house the tombs of the princes, but also their ministers and servants who they did not want to separate into death. One of the rooms is characterized by an egg-shaped dome. The tombs of men with a tombstone surmounted by a turban or tarbouch (rounded round cap) are recognised, while those of women have a stone on each side of a marble plate.
