IF WE BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME…

Lord Cultural Resources is to be involved in the project management of the exhibitions in the construction of the Grand Egyptian Museum within sight of the famous Old Kingdom Pyramids. The Grand Egyptian Museum will be the largest and most important Pharaonic museum in the world, the largest museum in Egypt and one of the leading scientific, historical and archaeological study centers on the globe. The museum's twenty-first century galleries, designed by Metaphor, will be located in an iconic and distinctive building located on the edge of the desert abutting the Giza Pyramids world heritage site. The Museum, designed by Heneghan Peng Architects, will cover over 3,50 0 years of ancient Egyptian history and house more than 50,000 artifacts, including King Tutankhamun's famed mummy and golden burial effects. The main achievement so far is the construction of the new conservation center with a documentation unit working to create a computerized database for all the artifacts.
