National Museum of Cambodia, National museum and art institution in Phnom Penh, Cambodia
The National Museum of Cambodia displays over 14,000 artifacts, including sculptures, ceramics, bronzes, and ethnographic objects from prehistoric times to modern periods.
Established in 1920, the museum survived the Khmer Rouge regime that caused destruction of numerous cultural artifacts between 1975 and 1979.
The museum exhibits the largest collection of Khmer art, providing extensive documentation of Cambodia's artistic development through different historical periods.
The museum operates daily from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, featuring organized exhibitions across multiple halls with descriptions in multiple languages.
The red terracotta building, designed by French architect George Groslier, incorporates traditional Khmer architectural elements around a central courtyard with lotus ponds.
