Journey through the world of Ancient Egypt with this audio tour of the Egyptian Collection at Brussels' Art and History Museum. You'll explore remarkable artefacts while listening to stories about pharaohs, monumental pyramids and the details of daily life in one of history's most enduring civilisations.
The audio guide provides insights into the nineteenth-century Belgian fascination with Egypt, highlighting the contributions of prominent figures such as Jean Capart, the Egyptologist who helped establish Brussels as an important centre for Egyptian studies. Through photographs and narratives, you'll discover how this Belgian connection to Egypt developed over time.
The self-guided format allows you to proceed at your own pace, spending more time with the exhibits that particularly capture your imagination.
