King Tut. Treasures of the Tomb Now Showing at the Museum of Idaho

Ten years in the making, from the artisans of the Pharaonic Village in Giza, Egypt and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this dazzling collection of Tutankhamen’s (King Tut) legendary treasures recreates the richest archaeological find of all time.


King Tut Treasures of the Tomb

With an expansive scope of over 130 artifacts masterfully produced in Egypt, this blockbuster exhibition is larger and more complete than any previous exhibition of the originals. Displayed in open glass cases, the exhibition includes replicas of the pharaoh’s sacred and personal possessions along with associated artifacts from the period surrounding Tutankhamen’s reign. Reconstructing both the historic discovery of the tomb by Howard Carter and the life and times of Egypt’s most celebrated boy-king, this exhibition takes visitors on a journey they will never forget.

Hours: Mon & Tues: 9am – 8pm, Wed – Sat.: 9am – 5pm, closed Sundays. Admission Prices: $8/adult, $7/senior, $6/youth, $25/Family. $20/Family Night (Mon: 5-8pm). Group rates available.
