Bahrain Museums
Bahrain - Manama
Controlled by the directorate of Museums and Ministry of Cabinet Affairs and Information of the Kingdom of Bahrain, Bahrain National Museum is a non-profit-making organization. This museum seeks to deliver the cultural background of the place. Like most of Bahrain Museums, it also undertakes exhibitions and research work besides preserving the vestiges of the past. Bahrain National Museum was inaugurated in the presence of the Minister of Information, the Amir of the Kingdom of Bahrain, the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister. From conservation laboratories, administrative offices, workshops, photo labs to even a library, restaurant, lagoon and car parks, this venue has got it all.
Museum of Pearl Diving in Bahrain is one of the most preeminent museums in Bahrain. Being the first official center for the Bahrain Courts, this museum houses the past records of the canons of justice and the civil rules and regulations. Four Supreme Courts as well as three Directorates were to be found in Museum of Pearl Diving in Bahrain. Finally, in 1984, the building was turned into the Traditional Heritage Center.
