The Egyptian Museum Location
It is located in the center of Cairo, near Tahrir Square.
Who built the Egyptian Museum?
The construction of this museum dates back to the year 1835, and its location was then in Azbakeya Park, where it included a reasonable number of various antiquities at that time.
Then it was transferred with its contents to the second exhibition hall in the Salah al-Din Citadel, until the French Egyptologist Auguste Mariette, who was working at the Louvre Museum, thought of opening a museum.
It included antiquities on the shore of the Nile at Bulaq, and when these antiquities began to be flooded, they were transferred to a special annex in the palace of Khedive Ismail in Giza.
Then the Egyptologist Gaston Maspero got approval to open the museum in 1902, during the reign of Khedive Abbas II, in its current location in the heart of Cairo.
