Al-Bayt Al-Aseel Museum

The Al-Bayt Al-Aseel Museum is located in the Al-Zaidy district in Makkah, the holiest place on earth. It welcomes visitors, especially locals, to explore its historical collections that span over 1,000 years, with each section of the museum telling unique stories and preserving moments of the past.

The museum features rare artifacts that reflect the historical heritage of Saudi Arabia over the past century, including a wide range of traditional crafts and professions such as blacksmithing, carpentry, perfumery, cotton trading, rosary making, and goldsmithing.

It also includes sections dedicated to pre-electricity-era gas-operated devices, ancient coins, and old audio-visual equipment. One of its most distinctive highlights is a full room designed to replicate the Kiswah of the Holy Kaaba with detailed explanations.

In addition, the museum blends past and present through modern interactive screens that provide visitors with informative content. Spanning three floors, it is designed to immerse visitors in the atmosphere of the past through traditional décor, seating areas, and hands-on displays that allow guests to experience history up close.
