About Egypt Centre

Based at Swansea University's Singleton Campus, The Egypt Centre has the largest collection of Egyptian antiquities in Wales. It holds over 7,000 artefacts with approximately 2,000 of these on display to visitors between the museum’s two galleries, the House of Death and the House of Life! Usually the Egypt Centre is open to all Tuesday to Saturday 10am to 4pm. However, the museum will be closed for refurbishment from September 2025 to January 2026.
Hands-on activities are available as well as an exciting display of Egyptian artefacts including weapons, jewellery, coffins and much more. We have an innovative schools programme which reaches most parts of the national curriculum!
