Museum of History and Civilizations in Rabat, Archaeological museum in Rabat, Morocco
The Museum of History and Civilizations contains collections of artifacts from prehistoric times through Islamic periods, displayed in chronological exhibition halls.
The museum building, constructed in the 1920s as the Department of Antiquities, opened its doors to the public in 1932 to showcase findings from Volubilis excavations.
The museum exhibits Roman bronzes, marble sculptures, and ceramics found in ancient Moroccan cities such as Volubilis, Lixus, and Chellah.
Located at 23 Rue Al Brihi in Rabat, the museum welcomes visitors daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM except Tuesdays, with entry fees of 20 MAD.
Following extensive renovations in 2017, the museum presents two distinct routes: chronological Moroccan history and a specialized collection of Roman-era sculptures.
