The Sphinx is the 4th largest outside Egypt. People who like archaeology will find it interesting because it collects relics from various countries. It was amazing to see the cat mummy

What's new at the museum

Princess Z3R0 | Sep 28, 2019

There is a lot of construction currently as a few major exhibitions are reworked. It's best if you call before 1/15/19 to verify your favourite exhibit is still open. They will be done by spring.

What is annual membership fee?

Dianna Unver | Sep 28, 2018
she redden | Sep 28, 2018

Per their website, it states $55 for one adult with unlimited admissions. $80 for a dual membership and 95 for the family. They have other options and discounts that come with your membership. We really enjoyed our visit and since the exhibits change I could see why visiting multiple times would be worth it. Hope this helps.
