Royal Jewelry Museum

The Royal Jewelry Museum is one of Alexandria’s most elegant attractions, housed in a former royal palace built in the early 20th century. Its lavish interior showcases the wealth of Egypt’s last ruling family, the Muhammad Ali Dynasty. Inside, visitors can admire stunning collections of crowns, tiaras, jeweled boxes, medals, and personal belongings once owned by queens and princesses. The palace itself, with its stained-glass windows and ornate ceilings, is just as impressive as the treasures it holds.
