“Treasures of the Pharaohs” exhibit in Rome

Rome’s “Scuderie del Quirinale” museum (it's located right in front of the Quirinale Presidential palace) is currently hosting the “Treasures of the Pharaohs” exhibit.

Up to 130 priceless artifacts have left Egypt for the first time to be displayed in Rome.  This rather exceptional collection of masterpieces tells the story of one of the oldest human civilizations on earth as Ancient Egypt arose before 3,200 B.C. on the banks of the Nile river.

The great pharaohs were distinguished by their talents in practically every field, such as medicine, astronomy, architecture, art, literate and even the world of magic by shedding light on the darkness of humanity more than 3,000 years ago. 

The artifacts in Rome are on loan from the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, the Luxor Museum and the Golden City on the West Bank of Luxor.

The exhibit runs until May 3^rd, 2026.
