關於
Al-Azm Palace (Arabic: قصر العظم Qaṣr al-ʿAẓm) is a palace in Damascus, Syria, built in 1749. Located north of Al-Buzuriyah Souq in the Ancient City of Damascus, the palace was built in 1749 to be the private residence for As'ad Pasha al-Azm, the governor of Damascus; during the French Mandate for Syria and the Lebanon, it housed the French Institute.
After the Syrian government had purchased the buildings from the Al-Azm family and extensive reconstruction, the palace houses the Museum of Arts and Popular Traditions.
