National Museum of Sudan

About

The National Museum of Sudan or Sudan National Museum, abbreviated SNM, is a war-damaged former museum, housed in a two-story building, constructed in 1955 and established as national museum in 1971. Before its destruction during the Sudanese civil war, the museum held an estimated 100,000 objects covering thousands of years of Sudan's history, ranging from the Nubian kingdoms and the Kushite empire to the country's Christian and Islamic periods.
