East meets West in this multi-purpose cultural center’s eye-catching design. Retracing the history of the Arab people, this museum contains ancient manuscripts, exquisitely-made silk carpets, pottery and a wide range of utensils, as well as scientific and astronomical instruments dating from between 750 and 1258 CE. Temporary exhibitions, organized on a regular basis on the ground floor, are a showcase for contemporary paintings and sculptures that reflect the latest artistic movements currently in vogue in the Arab world. Information is provided in pamphlets and interactive videos. Admission: EUR 10 (Museum & Exhibition); EUR 7 (Exhibition).
