About

Dubai Museum, nestled in the vibrant city of Dubai, offers an enriching journey through history. This accessible and child-friendly attraction, housed in the city’s oldest structure, a fort constructed in 1787, provides a glimpse into how homes were in old Dubai.

Visitors can explore various internal halls showcasing old weapons, traditional musical instruments, and historic artifacts. The museum features life-size dioramas and a central courtyard filled with intriguing objects. An updated video from 2007 portrays Dubai's remarkable transition from a humble fishing village to a modern metropolis, while interactive displays and realistic sounds offer an immersive experience.

With its high average rating of 4.3 on Google, the Dubai Museum invites you to spend 1-2 hours delving into the city’s past, completely free of charge. The entrance to the galleries is easily found at the fort's southwestern tower, where photography is welcome, allowing you to capture the essence of Dubai's rich history.
