Sursock Museum, Art museum in Rmeil district, Beirut, Lebanon.

The Sursock Museum occupies a three-storey stone villa with a pale tan facade, built in 1912. Its ground level has a central arched entrance with a glass door below a balustraded staircase rising to the right. The first floor has five tall arched windows with circular stained glass in red, blue, amber and green above a projecting balcony with a carved balustrade, and the top floor has a wide balcony with carved stone railing and three rectangular windows. A carved stone parapet runs along the flat roofline.

Nicolas Ibrahim Sursock, a Lebanese aristocrat, built the villa in 1912 and willed it to Beirut; after his death in 1952, President Camille Chamoun used it from 1953 to 1957 as a guesthouse for visiting heads of state, including the Shah of Iran and King Faisal of Iraq. It opened as a museum in 1961 under director Amine Beyhum. The 2020 port explosion damaged 57 artworks; after a $2.4 million restoration, it reopened on 26 May 2023.

The museum is named after Nicolas Ibrahim Sursock, the aristocrat who built the villa in 1912 and willed it to Beirut as a museum. His bequest set conditions: the mayor of Beirut oversees it and a group of Beiruti figures manages it. The collection began with antiquities and precious objects found in the villa's basement, alongside Islamic art.

The museum stands on Rue Sursock in the Rmeil district, uphill in Achrafieh. The 2015 expansion by Jean-Michel Wilmotte and Jacques Abou Khaled placed four new floors beneath the garden, reached from the villa's ground level; the research library, auditorium and restoration workshop are down there. The building was closed in October 2024 so works could be removed, and reopened on 20 December 2024.

After the severe port explosion in 2020, the building was damaged, but international support helped with extensive repairs. Many visitors don't realize the museum only reopened in 2023 following this restoration work.
