Venue Directory
Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum
The Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum, architecturally inspired by the Temple of Amon at Karnak, houses the largest collection of Egyptian artifacts on exhibit in the western United States -- including objects from pre-dynastic times through Egypt's early Christian era.
The Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum is located in the gardens of beautiful Rosicrucian Park, amidst buildings inspired by ancient Egyptian temples. Papyrus-lined paths lead visitors past walls carved with hieroglyphs, clustered lotus columns, elaborate fountains, and colossal statues of Egyptian gods.
Backpacks and large bags are not permitted inside the museum. Video, tripod and flash photography are not permitted inside the museum. Treasures of the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum, a catalogue, is available for sale in the museum store and features more than 260 color images of the artifacts in the collection.
