Museum of an Egyptian princess

Museum of an Egyptian princess

Traveling around the world has never been easier! It is possible thanks to a diverse collection of exotic objects in the museum of Moravská Třebová. A valuable collection was assembled and dedicated to the town by a local native and patron Ludwig Holzmeister.

His travels with the scent of the Orient led through India, Burma, Tibet, Japan or Egypt. You can make sure in the exhibition which, apart from the precious samurai swords from the 15th century and other unique items, is dominated by the genuine mummy of the Egyptian princess Hereret. You will see an original sarcophagus with a mummy and a restoration of the real appearance of a noble Egyptian woman.
