Sulaymaniyah Museum, Archaeological museum in Sulaymaniyah, Iraq
The Sulaymaniyah Museum contains multiple halls filled with artifacts, sculptures, and inscriptions from ancient Mesopotamian civilizations dating back thousands of years.
Founded in 1961, the museum has accumulated collections from archaeological excavations across Kurdistan, including items from Neo-Babylonian and Old Babylonian periods.
The collections include a Halaf Bowl from the 5th Millennium BC, ancient seals, and numerous artifacts that demonstrate the evolution of regional craftsmanship.
The museum opens from Sunday to Thursday between 9:00 AM and 1:00 PM, offering free admission and educational programs for school groups.
Recent renovations have modernized the exhibition spaces while maintaining the authenticity of historical displays through collaborations with international institutions.
