Obelisk of Abishemou, mosaic of the abduction of Europe...: 400 exceptional pieces, displayed in a spectacular scenography, immerse you in the epic of this city, one of the oldest in Lebanon, listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site. A history that began more than 8900 years ago, and whose protagonists were navigators and merchants, kings and pharaohs. Discover the latest discoveries of the ancient port and the fruit of the most recent excavations, which uncovered the city's southern gateway and a Bronze Age necropolis that has, exceptionally, survived intact to the present day.
