Established in 1951, the Jordan Archaeological Museum is nestled near the Amman Citadel, offering a journey through the region’s rich history. The museum’s collections span from the Stone Age to the Islamic era, featuring an array of Nabatean and Roman artworks. While some of its most significant pieces have been relocated to the newer Jordan Museum, which opened in 2014, visitors can still explore a diverse array of historical artifacts. Plans for updating the museum are in the works, promising a refreshed experience for future visitors.
