Welcome To The Museum
The Cairo International Airport Museum-(Terminal 3) was inaugurated in 2016, in the light of the cooperation protocol between the Ministry of Antiquities and the Ministry of Civil Aviation, to serve as the initial introduction to ancient Egypt, and even the window overlooking its iconic monuments and its majestic civilization. The museum at that time occupied an area of approximately 60 square meters, and 38 objects were displayed in it. In 2020 the museum was transferred from its first location to the fourth floor in the same building, in order to display more objects, as its area occupies about 150 square meters.
