The Luxor Museum was inaugurated in 1975. The range of artefacts on display is much more restricted than the country’s main collections at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo; however, this was deliberate, as the museum prides itself on the quality of the pieces it holds, the uncluttered way in which they are displayed and the clear multilingual labelling used.

The Mummification Museum is an archaeological museum in Luxor, Upper Egypt. Inaugurated in 1997, its name refers to the central theme of the museum, as it could not be otherwise, inside you can visit a huge collection of mummies of all kinds that will dazzle your face, trapping you in each specimen.
