The house was built under the Ottomans in 1908, serving first as a hospital and then as a textiles factory before falling into ruin. Its 21st renovation, masterminded by BATROUNIYAT, makes it a potent symbol for our times. Nestled in peaceful Batrouni greenery, it is both a reminder of a golden past and a blueprint for a better future.
Batrouniyat Association was founded in April 2009, to set a dynamic interaction between Batrouni producers, and shed a new light on touristic, artistic and cultural activities in Batroun.
