Ethnographic Museum of the Ethiopian Research Institute
About the company:
The Ethnographic Museum at the Ethiopian Research Institute is housed in the old palace of the late Emperor Haley Selassie. In addition to its cognitive value, this elegant building undoubtedly has great artistic value. It is the first modern palace built in the European style. The museum is housed on two floors, including the late emperor’s bedroom, and is an ethnographic section on the ground floor and an art gallery on the second floor.
The museum showcases the cultural heritage of more than 80 language groups. The exposition is built in two directions. The first is devoted to the general socio-economic conditions of the country and shows production tools and some folk crafts. The second part is a tour of the country, which presents various exhibits from each region of Ethiopia.
