Naguib Mahfouz Museum Extends Hours With Two Evening Shifts

The Naguib Mahfouz Museum in Cairo’s Al-Gamaleya district will begin operating two evening shifts on weekends starting July 6th.

The new hours -5 PM to 9 PM on Saturdays and Sundays - aim to accommodate more visitors and encourage nighttime cultural tourism in the historic heart of the capital.

Dedicated to Egypt’s only Nobel Prize-winning novelist, the museum is housed in the Bayt Al-Qadi complex and has become a major cultural attraction since its opening. It includes a library, rare manuscripts, and Naguib Mahfouz's personal belongings, giving visitors intimate insight into his life and work.
