Giza Solar boat museum
Location within Northern Egypt
Established
1982
Dissolved
2021
The Giza Solar boat museum was dedicated to display the reconstructed Khufu ship, a solar barque of pharaoh Khufu. It was constructed between 1961 and 1982, just a few meters from where the Khufu ship was found, on the southern side of the Great Pyramid, on the Giza Plateau in Egypt[1]
It was equipped with modern techniques and technologies to preserve the solar boat. The construction enabled viewing the boat from three different levels. On the ground floor, one could view the bottom of the boat.
The museum was dismantled after the ship was relocated to the Grand Egyptian Museum in August 2021.[2][3]
