The Petra Museum is home to over 280 artefacts dedicated to Petra’s history and the Nabatean civilisation. It is located quite close to the entrance to the archaeological site of Petra in Wadi Musa. It is, therefore, recommended to visit the museum before exploring Petra itself. Some of the items here include statues, tools, coins, knives, pottery, jewellery, clothing, weights and measures, weapons, mosaics, etc.
The Petra Museum is divided into five halls that house a variety of exhibits that date back to the Antiquity and have been found through archaeological excavations. In addition, there are touch screen displays and audio-visual aids throughout the museum that provide information about the region’s past and the numerous artefacts on display here.
