Coming Soon

The History of Science Museum will be offering soon a variety of presentations, each of which focuses on a specific subject displayed at the Museum, with rich and detailed ideas and facts that are shown via data show. The presentations will be shown at different points in the Museum where visitors will be able to browse through their content freely, using touch screens.

The presentations will be available in Arabic, English, and French; and they will cover the historical eras exhibited at the Museum: Egypt of the Pharaohs, Hellenistic Alexandria, and the Arab-Muslim Middle Ages. The visitor will start by choosing the language then chooses one of the themes; these include, among others: The Calendar, Archimedes, Astrolabes, Construction in Ancient Egypt, and Time Measurement in Ancient Times.
