Founded in 1824 by King Carlo Felice di Savoia, it’s the oldest museum in the world entirely devoted to Egyptian antiquities and it preserves more than 40.000 artifacts, 3.000 of these are exhibited chronologically in the 15 rooms arranged on 4 floors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/1619433695052-VADM9B94S35QH4JN75QS/ALB_6749.jpg The Museum This is the result of an impressive work of renovation and expansion of the museum that was finally presented to the public in 2015. Moreover, around 11.000 objects are displayed in the so called “Galleries of Material Culture”. The Museo Egizio of Turin as we know it today is the result of a four-hundred-year-long process, which starts with the first Egyptian antiquities acquired by the House of Savoy in the 17th century.

Court historians invented an extraordinary genealogy for the new capital, conjecturing that it had Egyptian origins. The bond with Egypt was strengthened when the Dukes of Savoy acquired the Mensa Isiaca, an Egyptising find. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/1619433506051-RX6YND433JU5ZXUCQH2K/ALB_6731-Modifica.jpg The Museum The ties between Turin and Egypt date from long before this museum was founded in 1824. The story begins in 1563, the year when the Dukes of Savoy moved their capital from Chambery to Turin. The general climate of the period induced the nobility to seek their origins in religion and mythology, so ennobling the foundation of the capital. In 1567, during work on the fortifications of Turin, the base of a statue was discovered dating from Roman times with an inscription in Latin, suggesting that a sanctuary dedicated to Isis once stood on the spot. This led the court historians Filiberto Pingone (1577) and Emanuele Tesauro (1679) to imagine that the city had Egyptian origins. In this context, probably between 1626 and 1630, the Savoys acquired a collection of antiquities from the Gonzagas of Mantua, outstanding among them the Mensa Isiaca. https://af-me.org/contact daily 0.75 2026-02-16 https://af-me.org/home daily 1.0 2026-03-12 https://af-me.org/collection daily 0.75 2021-06-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/8d77a449-4076-4d02-bda1-51659d07b475/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.36.16.png The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/65b2dcff-bddb-4a84-b6a5-ea3902026f79/WhatsApp+Image+2021-04-06+at+09.45.01+%283%29.jpeg The Collection The statues of the goddess Sekhmet The Museo Egizio has many colossal statues of the goddess Sekhmet. These sculptures all belong to a very numerous series, specimens of which are found in many Egyptian collections in the world and at several sites in Egypt. Most were discovered in the temple of Mut in Karnak. It is possible that even during Amenhotep III’s reign, these statues of Sekhmet were installed in several temples, According to another hypothesis, they originally all stood in the ‘Temple of Millions of Years’ of Amonhotep III (1390-1353 BC), on the site of Kom el-Hettan (western Thebes). These statues were used for daily rites which allowed the king to regenerate and ensure the equilibrium of the cosmos for eternity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/8fcbd51c-6a07-4b85-9af9-2acd6ca76606/WhatsApp+Image+2021-04-06+at+09.45.05+%285%29.jpeg The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/7e78d421-ae15-45cb-b2cf-d22e83765ab6/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.56.12.png The Collection Predynastic burial Predynastic Period, Naqada II (ca 3600 – 3350 BC). S. 293-303. This mummy was purchased in Egypt by Ernesto Schiaparelli in the early twentieth century. The body is that of a man who lived in the Predynastic Period, before Egypt was unified. The deceased was buried in the usual foetal position in the desert sand. The technique of mummification was not yet developed in this early period, but the dry warmth of the desert allowed the body to desiccate and mummify naturally. Traces of fabric and matting in which the corpse was wrapped are still visible on this skin of this ‘natural mummy’. Hunting weapons (arrows and throwing sticks), baskets, leather bags and sandals considered necessary to the deceased were usually included in this type of burial. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/7a27a7be-fb95-40b2-8dec-243444f31484/WhatsApp+Image+2021-04-06+at+09.45.26.jpeg The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/2b653974-e566-4244-abff-37de4c96ab6a/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.47.33.png The Collection The coffins of Butehamon Third Intermediate Period, early 21st Dynasty (1076 - 1056 BC), Deir el-Medina. C. 2236/1, 2237/3. In the Third Intermediate Period in the 10th century BC the wall paintings and funerary texts were transferred from the tomb walls to the coffins that became quite elaborate. Butehamon, the royal scribe of the necropolis, was buried in this double anthropoid coffin, distinctive for 21st Dynasty with an extra protective inner ‘false’ lid. The deceased is depicted on the exterior lid holding the djed-amulet (symbolizing the spine of Osiris and endurance) and the tyet-amulet (a protective knot). On the internal lid he holds the feathers of Maat, the goddess of justice. The rest of the figure is decorated with sacred texts, which border religious scenes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/8fcbd51c-6a07-4b85-9af9-2acd6ca76606/WhatsApp+Image+2021-04-06+at+09.45.05+%285%29.jpeg The Collection Ostracon showing an acrobatic dancer New Kingdom, 18th – 20th Dynasty (1292 – 1076 BC), Deir el-Medina. C. 7052. Papyrus was an expensive medium reserved for official documents, so that potsherds and flakes of limestone (ostraca) were normally used instead. The uses were disparate such as for contracts, receipts, letters, stories, writing exercises and even doodles provide an insight into daily life. This magnificently drawn sketch of a lady doing a back bend defies many of the conventions of Egyptian art. The lady is semi naked, wearing a black sarong and gold hoop earrings and is depicted in perfect profile, doing an elegant back bend. Her wavy hair flows wildly free, but her earring defies gravity. The liveliness and quality of draughtsmanship of this semi-erotic sketch, demonstrate a high level of skill and certainly suggests that it was the drawing of a royal artisan working in the Valley of the Kings. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/75ff9666-25ae-4ef0-918b-993262dffcf0/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.38.24.png The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/9ce5c85c-e1a1-418e-bbb1-0e645ac7c033/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.39.56.png The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/e10be681-bec1-4836-a6a3-17f9f2bfbc38/5072a42b20a145ab8068ad32c3c95312.full.jpg The Collection Gebelein painted linen The Gebelein cloth is the oldest known example of painting on linen so far, dating back to 5,000 years ago. It was discovered during the excavation season carried out in 1930 by Giulio Farina, in the Predynastic cemetery of Gebelein. The object is painted with red, black and white pigments, and shows scenes of life on the Nile, with boats and human figures engaged in various activities. The themes depicted concern a moment of ritual aggregation probably related to the celebration of one or more events related to religious worship or social ceremonies. Various activities are represented: a procession of boats, with rowers and passengers painted in red and depicted in profile; a "dance" of figures dressed in a long black skirt with their arms raised to the sky, facing downwards, or holding hands; and a hippo hunt. Given the complexity of the subjects, not all scholars agree on the interpretation of the functions and intended use of this artefact. The object was found fragmented into numerous pieces which were recomposed into four panels during the thirties of the last century https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/c9f00e8f-dd64-471f-9770-b963fe25278d/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.38.10.png The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/75ff9666-25ae-4ef0-918b-993262dffcf0/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.38.24.png The Collection Animal mummies – Mummy of a bull Egyptians gods manifested themselves in various forms and many were associated with specific animals. The practice of mummifying animals is documented in Egypt since the Predynastic Period (before 3000 BC), reaching the peak of its popularity in the Late Period, to finally disappear at the end of the 4th century BC. A specially selected specimen of the animal associated with a given deity was worshiped in this deity’s temple and regarded as its incarnation. Upon the animal’s death, the body was mummified and placed in a sarcophagus or coffin. Other animals were mummified and brought to the temple as votive gifts. The bull was associated with the god Api, royal power and the concept of strength. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/70091177-4452-499b-8bef-08bfeff8ca6b/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.40.41.png The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/c9f00e8f-dd64-471f-9770-b963fe25278d/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.38.10.png The Collection The Strike Papyrus New Kingdom, 20th Dynasty, reign of Ramesse III (1187 – 1157 BC), Deir el-Medina. C. 1880. The so-called “Strike Papyrus” is a hieratic (a cursive form of ancient Egyptian writing) administrative papyrus reporting the news of a strike that took place during the reign of Ramses III. The report on the papyrus was written by Amunnakht, scribe of the “Goldmine Papyrus” and the “Tomb Plan”. The workers protested because they had not received their regular food rations, which constituted payment for their work in the Valley for the Kings. Despite various attempts at conciliation, the protest lasted a number of days. To the officials who tried to persuade them to return to work, the workers replied: “We are here because of the hunger and thirst… Write to the pharaoh our perfect lord, take note of our words, and write to the vizier our superior because we are in need of our provisions”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/a5a33c26-4c0f-4051-8803-64529a9b545d/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.53.52.png The Collection The statue of Ramesses II New Kingdom, 19th Dynasty, reign of Ramesses II (279 – 1213 BC), Thebes, Karnak / temple of Amun. C. 1380. This granodiorite sculpture from Thebes is world renown as the highlight portrait of one of the most famous and longest reigning pharaohs: Ramesses II. The king wears the Blue Crown, or war helmet, probably made of leather and inlaid with metal rings, and a long-pleated robe that is asymmetrically draped to create an enormous bell sleeve. In his right hand he grasps the heqa-sceptre of rulership and his feet are shod in sandals. The statue is a beautiful example of the art of the period: the dress, the sandals and the pierced earlobes resume the typical fashion of the previous Amarna period. This statue is one of the symbols of the Museo Egizio. In a letter that he wrote during his stay in Turin in 1824, Champollion describes with enthusiasm “the beauty and the admirable perfection of this colossal figure (…): for six whole months I have seen it every day, and always I have the impression of seeing it for the first time. The head is divine, the feet and hands are admirable, the body is voluptuous; I call it the Egyptian Apollo of the Belvedere … in short, I am in love with it.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/65b2dcff-bddb-4a84-b6a5-ea3902026f79/WhatsApp+Image+2021-04-06+at+09.45.01+%283%29.jpeg The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/7a27a7be-fb95-40b2-8dec-243444f31484/WhatsApp+Image+2021-04-06+at+09.45.26.jpeg The Collection Funerary Mask of Merit New Kingdom, 18th Dynasty, reigns of Amenhotep II, Tuthmosis IV and Amenhotep III (1425-1353 BC), Deir el-Medina, S. 8473. The mask was found in 1906, in the precious burial assemblage of the Tomb of Kha and his wife Merit. The mask is made of cartonnage, a sort of papier-mâché made of stripes of linen soaked in gypsum, glided and decorated with semi-precious stones and glass. According to Spell 151 of the Books of the Dead, the purpose of the mask is to protect the deceased and restore his sight. The use of god and lapis lazuli describe the divine status of Merit, now an incorruptible spirit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/36631311-6ba2-42d7-9ec3-43d058b8973b/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.46.08.png The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/9ce5c85c-e1a1-418e-bbb1-0e645ac7c033/Screenshot+2021-04-26+at+14.39.56.png The Collection Mensa Isiaca Mensa Isiaca, 1st century AC, Rome, probably from the Iseum Campense, formerly in the Gonzaga collection. C. 7155. Pursuing an ambitious project to endow Turin with a “Great Gallery” of antiquities, between 1626 and 1630 Charles Emanuel I of Savoy ordered the purchase of a lot of objects from the collection of the Gonzaga dukes in Mantua. Among them was the so-called “Mensa Isiaca”, a bronze table representing the goddess Isis surrounded by other Egyptianized divinities and hieroglyphic signs. Made in the first century AD, probably in Rome, it was presumably meant to grace the altar od a temple of the goddess Isis, possibly the Iseum Campense itself. Its discovery, in 1527, intrigued many scholars interested in the interpretation of hieroglyphs that were later understood to be only decorative and meaningless. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/e9fc4ebc-81c3-4092-96c0-0f9f2d5d3d5c/Screenshot+2021-04-27+at+16.12.49.png The Collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/e9fc4ebc-81c3-4092-96c0-0f9f2d5d3d5c/Screenshot+2021-04-27+at+16.12.49.png The Collection The Book of the Dead of Iuefankh Ptolemaic Period (332 – 30 BC). C. 1791. The papyrus, which is 1847cm long, is part of the funerary equipment of Iuefankh, it comes to Turin with the Drovetti collection. The name "Book of the Dead" was coined by Richard Lepsius, a German scholar, to indicate the set of funerary formulas that, starting from the New Kingdom, were written on papyrus and included in the funerary spells to guide the deceased in the hereafter. Thanks to the good preservation of the papyrus, Lepsius was able to study it, starting to classify the text into chapters and establish a canon of reference that is still in use today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/1619433559045-KN25KH3U1RQNQ5Q86Q2M/ALB_6742-Modifica.jpg The Collection - Our Collection The Museo Egizio, with its extraordinary collection of statues, papyri, sarcophagi, objects from the daily life and, of course, mummies, is deemed to house the biggest cultural and scientific collection in the field of Egyptian antiquities outside of Egypt, in other words it is second to the Museum of Cairo. https://af-me.org/research daily 0.75 2021-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/1506d771-e9f2-4ac1-934f-f160ed9777fb/Screenshot+2021-04-27+at+16.21.31.png The Research https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/3125e160-b8d0-47a3-8452-2fe9dcf40f1d/S_8438.jpg The Research TT8- Tomb of Kha and Merit Our aim is to publish the first study of the tomb of Kha and Merit on the occasion of the bicentenary of the Museo Egizio’s foundation in 2024.

The year 2024 was a year of great change for the Museo Egizio. The bicentenary of the Museo Egizio’s foundation (1824-2024) marked the beginning of a major transformation process of the Museum's exhibition spaces, accessibility, and use. Thanks to this extensive renovation, the Museum will increase its display and exhibition areas by more than 1,000 square meters. We look forward to showing our American Friends the new Museo Egizio! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/6337d024-bfdc-4984-b1c7-3c7c194823f0/download+%2812%29.png 200 Years of the Museo Egizio - Piazza Egizia A new square in the heart of Turin A modern space made of steel and glass, capable of welcoming everyone: visitors, passers-by and those who are simply curious. The covered area will dominate the 1,000 square meters of Piazza Egizia, which will house the new cafeteria and all other services, including the ticket office. The architectural project – created by the Dutch architectural firm OMA – focuses on the re-functioning of the building's courtyard, which will become a new public space on two separate levels. Piazza Egizia will be accessible to everyone and from here it will be possible to take different routes to discover the Museum. Visitors will be able to walk around the rock-cut chapel of Ellesiya, which will be open and free to all, enjoy the beauty of the Egyptian Gardens, and visit ‘Materials. The Shape of Time’, the new exhibition spaces dedicated to material culture and immerse themselves in the multimedia area with projections to experience the Egyptian landscape.  https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/0315f848-2a93-459e-aaaa-7fc51c737d78/Immagine1.jpg 200 Years of the Museo Egizio - Multimedia area “Immersive Egypt” Bringing Egyptian Landscapes to the Museum The large underground hall will offer an immersive environment that, thanks to scientific research and digital innovation, will reproduce some of the archaeological contexts where the artefacts came from. The biography of the objects will be enriched with evocative landscapes and detailed images to provide a broader and more complete experience about the Museum’s collections and ancient Egypt. The original context will be digitally reconstructed through immersive LED-wall surfaces. Immersive Egypt will complete the process of restitution begun with the bicentennial of the Museo Egizio, becoming, together with the Egyptian Garden and the Rock-Cut Chapel of Ellesyia, a museum space with free access allowing to expand opportunities for learning, foster inclusive engagement, and develop new educational programs tailored to different audiences. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/1722518753095-U6SCZTF8F6GGE2BY6KLV/DSC6633-scaled.jpg 200 Years of the Museo Egizio - Egyptian Gardens Double the amount of greenery Following on from the first Egyptian-style garden created in 2022 in the Museum's courtyard, which was a reconstruction of an Egyptian pleasure garden from the New Kingdom (ca. 1550–1069 BCE), we decided to double the amount of green space. To provide visitors with an even more immersive and tangible experience of ancient Egypt, two new Egyptian gardens were created on the Museum’s rooftop: a funerary garden, associated with the rituals surrounding tombs and funerary customs, and a kitchen garden, linked to daily life, food and diet. These two gardens, based on existing models and idealised representations, give visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves into the flora of ancient Egypt as the Egyptians intended for both life on earth and in the netherworld. Additionally, a new garden will be introduced in the Piazza Egizia. The arrangement of plants will recall those from ancient Egyptian houses with specimens typical of the Nilotic environment such as palms, sycamores and fig trees.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/606320cca282f254332cbbf3/9d11db86-186d-4481-918f-b9f8f87c1b15/news_MUJ_7886.jpg 200 Years of the Museo Egizio - The new Gallery of the Kings From darkness to light Immediately in front of the rock-cut chapel of Ellesiya is one of the Museo Egizio’s most iconic galleries: the Gallery of Kings. Being highly aware of the great success of the exhibition designed by Dante Ferretti in 2006, Museum staff and curators wanted to propose a new design that reflected the multiple contexts of origin of the statues while also enhancing the architectural style of the building that houses the collection. The new exhibition design, conceived by architecture firm OMA in collaboration with the Museo Egizio curatorial team, titled ‘From darkness to light’, aims to re-illuminate the spaces and reposition the statues according to how they originally stood in places where they were discovered.  During the refurbishment, the impressive statues were on display in the Museum's atrium, in the same place where they were set up on their very arrival in Turin in 1824.   The new Gallery of the Kings was inaugurated on 20 November 2024 in the presence of President Mattarella.

This decision is related to the nature of the temple, it was donated by Egypt to the Italian state in 1970 as a form of thanks for Italy’s participation in the UNESCO mission to save the Nubian temples. The temple of Ellesiya is therefore national property and hence a form of cultural heritage that belongs to everyone. In rethinking the gallery’s display, greater emphasis has been placed on the archaeological context of origin, including the use of modern digital technologies. Using video mapping techniques, the new display recounts the long history of the temple from its construction to its rescue in the 1960s following the construction of the Aswan Dam.  The rock-cut chapel of Ellesiya inaugurated on 20 November 2024 in the presence of President Sergio Mattarella.
