The Imhotep Museum
Back to List of Museums
The
Imhotep Museum at Saqqara, founded in 2006,
is a site museum designed to house artifacts
from local excavations. It serves to prepare
visitors for their visit to the necropolis
of Saqqara, which includes the Serapeum,
the Step Pyramid of King Djoser, the pyramids
of King Teti and King Unas, and elite tombs
from all eras of ancient Egyptian history.
The museum is named after Imhotep, the Old
Kingdom official credited with designing
the Step Pyramid; later deified, he became
revered as a wise man and a patron of medicine.
The
display includes reconstructed architectural
elements from the Step Pyramid complex, beautiful
statuary, and objects from royal and elite
tombs. The labels are in Arabic, English,
and French.
