Good to know

Note - The Penn Museum is undergoing an extensive renovation of the Egyptian Galleries, and will be closed on November 6, 2023. The large Egyptian Sphinx will remain on display in the Main Entrance, but there will be very limited material from Egypt available for guests to see during this time. The Egypt Galleries will re-open in two phases – the Lower Level Gallery will open in the Fall of 2026. The Upper Level Galleries will reopen in 2028.
