Visit Luxor Museum and Mummification Museum

Overview

You begin the day with a visit to the Luxor Museum, an institution established by the Egyptian government. As the museum acts as custodian for finds excavated in Luxor and its surroundings, you will see objects that offer a clear window into the city’s long history. Along the way, displays and artefacts put local discoveries into context and help explain Luxor’s role in ancient Egypt. Afterward, the visit continues to the Mummification Museum, a modern space dedicated to illustrating and documenting the mummification process. Here you will have the opportunity to explore tools and substances used in embalming, alongside mummies, coffins and other artefacts connected with ancient Egyptian mortuary practices. Together, the two museums present complementary perspectives on Luxor’s heritage: one focused on the wider archaeological finds of the area, the other on the specific techniques and objects tied to death and burial.
