Testour is a small town located in the north of Tunisia, and a popular pilgrimage for native Jews who visit Rabbi Fraji Chawat's tomb.

The town is perched on the hills of Medjerda Valley, 20 km south-west of Medjez-el-Bab, the crossroads between Tunis, Béja, and the north of Tunisia. Although it has been known since ancient times as Tichilla, it has been rebuilt by Muslim and Jewish refugees from Andalusia who gave it its character in building and layout.
