Villa du Bardo is a residency in Algiers, Algeria. Presumably constructed in the 18th century, property of an exiled Tunisian prince. After the French colonization, it became the property of successive Algerian and French private owners, before being acquired by the French State, which transformed it into a museum of prehistory and ethnography. Today the Villa is part of the National Museum of Bardo, dedicated to prehistory, anthropology and historic studies.
