Tutankhamun, gold and curse.

The eleventh pharaoh of the 18th Egyptian dynasty, and definitely the most famous of the Egyptian pharaohs, the exceptional state of conservation of the mummy, all the riches found in its tomb, as well as the legendary curse that would fall on anyone who would disturb the sleep of the pharaoh, have in part created the notoriety of the famous sovereign of Egypt.

If you are interested in the figure of Tutankhamun, but above all curious to see the many objects present in the famous tomb, the Grande Halle de la Villette in Paris offers the opportunity to admire these magnificent treasures of ancient Egypt, perpetuating the memory of the pharaoh and his immortality, at the bend of an exhibition named "Tutankhamun, the Pharaoh's treasure", available from 23 March to 15 September 2019.

Almost a century after the discovery of the tomb, Paris devotes a brand new exhibition to the sovereign. Organized by the Ministry of Egyptian Antiquities, as well as with the support of the Louvre Museum, this temporary exhibition brings together more than 150 pieces, including 60 original objects from Tutankhamun's tomb. A true invitation to travel, to discover Ancient Egypt, this exhibition shows a vast sandy desert with an infinite look, from mummies to pyramids, to the hidden treasures abounding in the region.
