Allard Pierson Museum of Antiquities Review

The Arad Pearson Museum is a museum located in the university, a must-visit place to the University of Amsterdam. The museum is very historical, and it is also very famous in Amsterdam and worth visiting.

The museum located in the University of Amsterdam, the collection is very rich, it can be said that the big museum outside, you can see many historical and particularly precious European artifacts, which is very impressive.

I've been to Oxford before but never went in the Arad Pearson Museum, wow, thankfully I didn't miss it, the first exhibit I saw was a 3,500-year history of the Sumerian Kings List, linked to the floods and the stories of Gilgamesh, The exquisite ceramics upstairs fascinate me. The collections of the Indian subcontinent are also great: from Mohenjo-Daro and Indian civilization to Mughal India. I was only going to go to the gift shop to buy something, and then came here. Later I was fascinated and spent the rest of my time in Ashmolean. Time is well used. Staff was great too, I asked some strange questions (about how to dust the large statues) they all answered, the lockers were convenient for storing my coat and schoolbag, the museum not only placed common benches, but also many armchairs scattered throughout the building, It was a surprise. I plan to return to Oxford again because I still want to go to the Arad Pearson Museum, but maybe I will go back to Ashmolean again.

It is an archaeological museum of the University of Amsterdam. It was officially opened in 1934. It is named after Alad Pearson, the first professor of Classical Archaeology at the University of Amsterdam. It mainly collects historical relics of ancient Egypt, the Near East, Greece, Etruria, Rome and Cyprus.

The Alad & Pearson Museum, located at the University of Amsterdam in downtown Amsterdam, is a Baroque-style architecture. It has exhibits related to ancient Egypt and Rome. It is free to visit and rented for interpreters.
