However, due to its ongoing presidential functions, some of the palace’s main halls are not accessible for occasional tours or without prior arrangement.
- Abdeen Palace Museum - Abdeen Palace is more than just a single museum; it is a grand complex featuring four distinct museums, each offering insights into Egypt’s royal and military history. The Weapons Museum boasts an impressive collection divided into two sections: bladed weapons like swords and daggers, many embellished with gold, silver, and precious stones, and an extensive firearms collection, including rare 17th-19th century pistols and rifles. The Orders and Medals Museum displays royal decorations, including a Russian coronation sword and gold-plated ammunition belts presented to King Farouk. The Silverware Museum preserves opulent dining sets made from gold, silver, and crystal, while the Historical Documents Museum houses rare manuscripts from the royal era.
