The museum was built in 1932 to house the numerous antiquities discovered while digging the Suez canal (1859-1869). During the construction of the sweet water canal, which leads from the river Nile to the Suez Canal, a portion of the ancient settlement of Tell el-Maskhuta (Pithom) was unearthed and statues from the ancient temple of Atum emerged. Over the time more artefacts were included from different sites so that the Museum today offers an overview on the cultural history of Egypt from the Early Dynastic Period through to the Islamic Era (project-min.de)

A small and very intimate museum with some interesting museum objects. Particularly noteworthy is the beautiful mosaic on the floor, numerous ceramics from different eras and regions (in the photo from Greece), interesting sculptures and several Coptic icons.

Small but beautifully organised 😊But it has no air-conditioning

Small but a lot of interesting artifacts to see. Nice garden around the museum.

Historical place with history from the different egyption eras. Tour guide was highly educated and informative. Nice place for families with children and young people.

Small and nice place

This museum is so underrated, it has funerary exhibition with an actual ancient Egyptian mummy. Its small but lovely. They also have Roman mosaic art and coptic icons. So it has multiple eras and exhibitions.

Small museum, displays some interesting artifacts and manuscripts from Ancient Egyptian, Greek, Islamic eras. You can complete the tour in 1 hour. Tickets for Egyptians 10 L.E.And for non Egyptians 50 L.E.Photograpy is with additional cost.Good place to visit.

Its very good place, just need air condition, Visitors there are little, when ask someone there is there a visitors come here?He said just forigen people.There is a real momiy there, I didnt expect that.

A collection of antiques found during the work of the Canal. Considers the second eldest museum in Egypt after the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The museum isnt spacious enough, you can take a round in less than 10 minutes. Moreover nothing special about Ismailia Governorate, most of them are Pharoah ancient pieces.

Poor food quality compared to many other restaurants in ismailia and much more expensive

♥♥♥♥ I visited it many times , superb museum.

Small museum with small but interesting collection of artifacts.

Very goodMany varieties for several agesRecommend

Love the place full of good quality egyptian and Romanian and Greek stuff I would suggest to visit it when u are at one of the most beautiful city in Egypt the stuff was so friendly and they explained to us everything there

This museum seem to be closed I didnt enter the museum and never see any one enter it before. But out side the museum there is a lot of status at good form and it have a lot of securities outside it. I hope to visit it one time to see what is there

Interesting museum. We had a tour by one of the employees and was quite amazing. The museum needs more attention and maintenance from the government.

Collection of three periods of ancient Egypt. Small area but there is a lot to see. Need illustrations. The building as well is a monument.

An amazing museum filled with a lot of pieces from egypts history no photography allowed u have to pay I guess 50 egp

Nice and small, I wasnt expected that there were a historical stuff in Ismailia, Recommended

Theres not much to see and my Egyptian wife told them Im not Egyptian so they charged me more to enter.

Small and quaint museum with some very interesting artifacts. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Who has heard of the Ismailia Museum??? We lack museum knowledge and cultural Museum includes exhibits from different eras and the Ministry of Antiquities. Culture and education These bodies must be established to develop awareness among our children and provide them with the opportunity to learn about our heritage and culture and raise the morals of society.

Mercy on the future of our children, we seek refuge with everyone who has the ability to make decisions to develop thought and culture. Push our children towards learning museum culture...a beautiful museum that requires the combined efforts of the family and the school. Make trips to museums

The museum is very small and therefore organizing the pieces is difficult..it contains antiquities from almost all eras..the ticket is only ten pounds..a pleasant experience in general for antiquities lovers.

A wonderful museum and the children were fascinated by it, because in Ismailia there is a wonderful tourist place like this

A very wonderful museum with more than one period of time, fun time for young children, and the most beautiful hospitality

Very sweet in needs similar to the antiquities in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, but it is closer to the inhabitants of the cities of the channel, and it is surprising that it contains furniture that is not available except by it, but it did not bother me because of its small size

A beautiful place, but a very small museum, and the exhibits are few in relation to the city of Ismailia, which is known to be a tourist city

A nice but small place, not worth traveling from Cairo especially

A small and good museum with relics from many times worth seeing ...

It is one of the best museums I have visited

A museum that includes antiquities from different eras, from prehistory to the Islamic eraThe artifacts are beautiful and wonderful, but it needs some renovation in the means of display

It was beautiful, and its location is beautiful, and it is close to the Suez Canal

Outside only, no photography inside when I visited this wonderful place المكان

It needs some servicing, but it is clean

A lovely place to relax and photograph

The museum contains pieces from different eras, such as the ancient Egyptians, the Romans, the Ptolemies, and the Islamists.Not very large, you can finish your tour in half an hour at most.The only drawback is that it is not air-conditioned, so in the summer it is preferable to go during the evening period.

This museum is a landmark of Ismailia all children and adults know because everyone in Ismailia visited this museum when he is young at school because every school in Ismailia devote a cultural entertainment day for students to visit this museum and it was one of the most beautiful days for me because I knew that Ismailia has an antiquities museum, although it is not Large but beautiful inside.

The museum is small in size, but rich in antiquities, not huge like statues, but its beauty is that it is household tools, decorations, cosmetics, and other tools and ornaments that fire the imagination of visitors, as if they see how the ancients lived. The place is organized and clean, and it has guides specialized in history and The antiquities are also easy to reach, as it is opposite the ship guidance building in Ismailia, which is one of the most famous landmarks of Ismailia, and the museum is supervised by the Suez Canal Authority and given special care.

Nice museum, I wish people would visit it and learn about the civilization of their country

The Ismailia National Museum is one of the oldest museums in Egypt, and it is unique and very excellent.

Not too bad

A small amount of exhibits. Everything that is, you can watch in no time in 1/2 hour. For the opportunity to take photos you have to pay extra.

Nice and simple museum

A beautiful and tidy place, the best thing is there is a guide inside the museum, explaining the importance of the artifacts, which is not delicious there. The weather is very free and there is no air conditioning or fans.

Is a very small museum does not fit with a province with a huge and diverse history, such as the province of Ismailia, but it is very diverse and organized and recommended to visit the lovers of antiquities

The place is better and clean now, but the artifacts are few

Museum of Pharaonic Antiquities in the heart of the city of Ismailia valiant, open all days of the week except Friday.

Very bad is a 2 suite including the effects of more than a very small time-entry period of 10 c is forbidden to shoot even mobile need to pay 20 c

A very nice
