Museums & Galleries

Museums & Galleries in Cairo
Egyptian Museum: internationally known for its significant collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts, this impressive facility can be found in the heart of the city. Highlights of the collection include a number of mummified bodies plus artefacts retrieved from the tomb of Tutankhamen.
Mashrabia Gallery: is sited in a quiet area in the alley by a cafe (ahwa), and visitors may miss this place easily. That would be a shame, since this art gallery has fine exhibits by foreign and local artists and is one of the main tourist sites of Al-Nitaq, the yearly Cairo Art Festival. Patrons and artists frequent the cafe out front in the evenings.
Museum of Islamic Ceramic: housed inside the impressive Palace of Prince Ibrahim, this museum features among its highlights, a priceless collection of Islamic ceramics hailing from Egypt, Turkey, Iran and southern Spain.
Coptic Museum: home to the single biggest collection of Coptic Christian artwork in the world, this museum features works from ancient Egypt and from more recent Islamic Egypt.
