The National Museum of Alexandria was originally a mansion of one of the wealthy of Alexandria, a timber merchant Assaad Bassili, who built this palace in the Italian style and remained in it until 1954 AD and then sold it to the American Embassy for an amount of 53 thousand pounds, which it used as a consulate in Alexandria and this palace remained the headquarters of the American consulate In Alexandria until the Supreme Council of Antiquities bought it in 1996 AD and was at that time a subsidiary of the Ministry of Culture before the creation of the Ministry of Antiquities in 2011 in the amount of 12 million Egyptian pounds, which he restored, renovated and transformed into a national museum for the ancient city that was started to build in 332 BC, on the hands of Alexander the Great and his successors from The Ptolemies, at the beginning of the third millennium, was inaugurated during the era of former President Hosni Mubarak on September 1, 2003. The National Museum of Alexandria contains 1,800 artifacts that include all the ages from the era of the ancient Pharaonic state to the modern era. These pieces depict Egypt's civilization, culture, arts and industries during different eras, as well as showing the unity of Egyptian history and personality through the exhibits that show all the stages that passed through the history of Egypt From national historical events and persons that made these events, and that was represented first in the Egyptian Pharaonic background as the oldest Egyptian civilizations, then came the Ptolemaic era and the Roman, Byzantine and Islamic era, and at the end came the era of the modern era that begins with the era of the rule of the family of Muhammad Ali Pasha and ends with the revolution of July 23, 1952 AD. Many artifacts have been brought to display in this museum from several museums, including the Egyptian Museum, the Museum of Islamic Art, the Coptic Art Museum in Cairo, the Greco-Roman Museum, the Museum of Flooded Antiquities and the Museum of Islamic Antiquities in Alexandria and a visitor to this museum can enter through history from the Pharaohs Gate and passing through the rest of the various museum sections And up to the recent past, at the beginning, we find the first sections of the museum that take us to the memories of the distant time. It is the ancient Egyptian antiquities section, in which the pieces are displayed according to the historical sequence, starting from the era of the ancient Pharaonic state and passing through the central Pharaonic state, then the modern Pharaonic era, and the late Pharaonic era, which includes the state’s era. The ancient statues are a group of statues of the kings of this family, senior statesmen, and statues of individuals who were serving them, which were an important element in the graves to serve the deceased in the other world according to their beliefs at that time. Among the most important pieces in this section is a statue representing the Egyptian writer and a group of pots found in the pyramid of King Djoser Listed in Saqqara area, Giza Governorate. Then we move on to the section of the era of the Middle Pharaonic State, where there are a group of statues that express the transformation of art in this era from idealism to realism, as is clearly shown in the statue of King Amenemhat the Third. As for the era of the modern state, it is considered the best of the artistic ages. Art collection in this period between Realism is a good and ideal school for the school of Memphis, as a result of this mating the most beautiful pieces of art, which includes the museum some rare pieces such as the head of Queen Hatshepsut and the head of King Akhenaten and a group of statues of King Tuthmosis the Third and King Ramses II and the god Amon and from the late era of the ancient Egyptians the museum displays a set of statues for the kings of this The age and model of a cemetery that includes a mummy, a set of coffins and various amulets. After that comes the Greco-Roman section, which includes traces from different...

The Alexandria National Museum is a must-visit for anyone interested in Egyptian history and culture. This world-class museum is home to an outstanding collection of artifacts and exhibits that offer a comprehensive look at the rich history and culture of Egypt.

Visiting the Alexandria National Museum was a truly enlightening experience.

Nice museum. Modest in terms of size in comparison to with other museums like the Greco-Roman museum, but it houses good collection of artifacts. It’s located in a former Italianate mansion. It's the former home of a wood sales person, and it used to house the United States consulate. Most of the museum’s collection came from other Egyptian museums, and the museum consists of three floors, each for a specific time and civilization. Ground floor is for the Hellenistic period and Roman period, underground floor for Pharaonic epoch. The mummies are shown in a recreation of a funerary chamber, and the 2nd floor is for ancient Egyptian, Coptic, and the Muslim world, as well as 19th and 20th century. The city of Alexandria is also included in the collection.

A very quaint building built in the imperial period and architecture. Contains so many remnants of the brilliant Egyptian history like period weapons, jewellery worn by the people of the times, cooking utensils and most importantly the Mummies! All inclusive ticket is EGP 300 which includes access to the Mummy Room (TutanKhamun's Tomb) which houses mummies, photography is strictly prohibited inside the room but allowed in all the places. You need to pay an extra EGP 50 to use your camera. Just for information, a new museum is being built on the outskirts of the city and should be ready by 2022 I guess and this current museum will cease to exist as all the artifacts will be shifted to the new location
