Islamic Museum
Islamic Museum, Jerusalem
The Islamic Museum in Masjid al-Aqsa was established in 1923 CE (1341 AH) by the Supreme Islamic Council. It is considered to be the first museum founded in Palestine. Initially, it was housed at Ar-Ribat Al-Mansour, which is located opposite the current Islamic Waqf headquarters. In 1929 CE (1348 AH), the museum was moved from there to its current location at the southwestern corner of Masjid al-Aqsa, next to the Moroccan Gate.
