Gibran Museum, Biographical museum in Bsharri, Lebanon.
The Gibran Museum occupies a former monastery building with 16 exhibition halls displaying paintings, drawings, and personal belongings of Khalil Gibran.
The museum site originated as a 7th-century hermitage cave, later transformed into the Mar Sarkis monastery before becoming Gibran's final resting place in 1931.
The museum collection includes 440 original paintings and drawings, private manuscripts, and the complete contents from Gibran's New York studio.
Located 120 kilometers from Beirut, the museum provides visitors with access to exhibition halls, a gift shop, and parking facilities.
Stone steps carved into the rock lead to Gibran's tomb, which resides in the ancient hermitage cave beneath the museum complex.
