The Basrah Museum opened its first Gallery of the Museum in September 2016. It provides a great opportunity towards restoring the country's cultural heritage damaged in conflicts dating back almost four decades to the war.
The museum has four main galleries, the first one was devoted to the Basra region, opened in 2016 thanks to a generous donation from the BP Foundation and other corporate and private contributions. Then in 2019 the museum officially opened its doors to the public with three new galleries: Babylon, Sumer and Assyrian containing thousands of artefacts dating back as far as 6000BC.
