The Dubai National Museum is one of the major tourist attractions in Dubai. It celebrates the history, heritage and culture of Dubai and its people.
Dubai National Museum was established and officially inaugurated on May 12th 1971. The Museum is located in Al Fahidi Fort which is one of the most ancient historical buildings in Dubai. In order to protect this ancient monument, it was rehabilitated during the era of Shaikh Maktoum Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, vice president, prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
The Museum contains a collection of artifacts which depict the different aspects of social, economic and professional life. When the Museum was opened by the ruler of Dubai in 1971, its main aim was to furnish a record of the Emirate's traditional life, much of which is fast disappearing. Local antiquities have been collected and stored, along with artifacts from many African and Asian countries, trading partners with the Emirate, throughout its long commercial history.
A large section of the museum is devoted to musical instruments, with displays of drums, flutes, lyres, bagpipes. They also have on display Arms and weapons- curved daggers, swords, spears, bows and arrows, shields made of sharkskin, pistols and axes.
