Aswan Museum.


One of the two museums, which can be visited while in Aswan.  Aswan Antiquities Museum is located on the island of Elephantine.  It was opened in 1912 - then under the building for the museum was renovated home of the former engineer of the dam.  Having bought a ticket to the museum can see a lot of interesting and very ancient artifacts, or visit the remains of a recently discovered by German archaeologists of the ancient city of Abu.
