The Egyptian Museum is the most famous museum in Egypt and is home to the grandest collection of ancient Egyptian treasures. The arrangement is more or less chronological, so that starting at the entrance and walking clockwise along the ground floor you pass from Old kingdom through Middle kingdom and New kingdom exhibits (the highlight on this floor is the Akhenaton room at the rear), concluding with Ptolemaic and Roman exhibits.

The first floor contains prehistoric and early dynastic exhibits and the contents of several tombs, most notably the magnificient array of wealth from Tutankhamun's.

In the Mummy Room lie the bodies of such great pharaohs as Ramses II and Seti I.
