Alexandria Museum Artifacts Under Threat? Official Clarifies
The Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities confirmed that the artifacts at the Alexandria National Museum are safe, despite the appearance of moisture and efflorescence on some of its walls, particularly in the basement level, which houses ancient Egyptian artifacts. Officials explained that this issue is not new and has been addressed periodically since the museum's opening in 2004. A comprehensive plan for restoration and development is underway for the years 2026-2027 to eliminate the causes of humidity, especially given the high humidity levels in the city, which reach up to 85% during the summer, and the impact of groundwater. They emphasized that all artifacts are under continuous monitoring, and no damage has been recorded. Restoration work continues to ensure the protection of the building and its historical collections.
