Luxor Museum

Discover Luxor Museum with Our Egyptologist Guide. It stands on the corniche, overlooking the east bank of the river Nile. The Museum opened in 1975. 
Among the museum's finest exhibits, a group of statues representing the era of the New Kingdom were found hidden near the Luxor Temple in 1989 AD.

Among the items on display are grave goods from the tomb of the 18th dynasty pharaoh Tutankhamun and a collection of 26 New Kingdom statues which were found buried in the Luxor statue cache in the nearby Luxor Temple in 1989.

The royal mummies of two pharaohs – Ahmose I and Ramesses I – were also put on display in the Luxor Museum in March 2004, as part of the new extension to the museum, which includes a small visitor center. 

A major exhibit is a reconstruction of one of the walls of Akhenaten's temple at Karnak. One of the featured items in the collection is a calcite double statue of the crocodile god Sobek and the 18th Dynasty pharaoh Amenhotep III.
