A very important museum with fabulous exhibits ranging from Neolithic to Umayyad periods. It’s an old museum well in need of investment and renovation but it’s art artefacts are top. Although it is a relatively small building, the museum is rich of so many artifacts from all historical epochs of human settlement in the area. They have artefacts, skeletons, pottery , statues organized in sections such as bronze age, iron age, stone age and so on. No entry fee needed. If you have entered Amman citadel, it's in the same campus. If you get tired watching, you have seats to sit down and relax. Nicely presented history of the Jordan. The exhibits are great. A lot of information in a small space.

The visit to the museum is included with the same ticket for Amman citadel, so no entry fees. Inside the museum you will find some skeletons and tombs, some primitive jewelry. It’s will maintained in good shape. I like the way they organized it in sections such as Stone Age , iron ages and Bronze Age , please don’t try to touch anything as the place is equipped with alarms and sensors.

Amazing place to see old Amman city from the top

Small, old but very precious pieces. If you are already there it worth a look

A very important museum with fabulous exhibits ranging from Neolithic to Umayyad periods. It’s an old museum well in need of investment and renovation but it’s art artefacts are top. They have here several of the Ain Ghazal statues which are considered the oldest figures ever made. They also have a figure - from Jericho that is considered the oldest worshiped figure in the world. The descriptions are also excellent in this museum. But it does need a renovation, dark black with better lighting. Hopefully this will come in tne not too distant future

Although it is a relatively small building, the museum is rich of so many artifacts from all historical epochs of human settlement in the area. It is amazing how, in only one place, you can track the evolution of human skills marked by the invention and manipulation of tools. First, the "Stones," followed by the pottery jars and dishes, then tools from the Bronze age, followed by the iron tools. The Roman time is marked by the glass. From the Islamic period, you will find nice pieces of colird porselin.

well collected museum with plenty of anciant artifacts

They have artefacts, skeletons, pottery , statues organized in sections such as bronze age, iron age, stone age and so on. No entry fee needed. If you have entered Amman citadel, it's in the same campus. If you get tired watching, you have seats to sit down and relax. Some areas, they have sensors which triggers alarm which people cross the line and go near artefacts. The beautiful Roman statues are really interesting.

Great museum contains a pieces of ancient stones and statues

Excellent labels. Must see the statue of Daedalus, one of the finest ancient sculptures I’ve ever seen. Detail is impressive.

A beautiful museum with many treasures to offer including neolithic sculptures! If you can, plan for multiple visits. Note: the dead sea scrolls are not available here anymore, moved to the Jordan Museum in downtown Amman.

This is a small but interesting museum in the middle of the Amman Citadel, located near the Pillars of Hercules. It used to be famous for housing the Dead Sea Scrolls, but they have been moved to the new Jordan Museum in the town. But still, this museum has a lot of interesting things about Jordan & surrounding areas's ancient history and even some pre-history. Outside the museum, right in front, is also the famous Hand of Hercules.

Amazing historial objects displayed from different ancient eras. Our land is full of treasures.

The museum houses artefacts from different archaeological sites of the country, from the Paleolithic to the Islamic Era. The collection is arranged in chronological order and includes pottery, glass, flint and metal tools, inscriptions and statuaries, jewellery and coin collections. The highlights to see are: Statues from Ain Ghazal, among the earliest known large-scale human figures, dated to approximately 8700 - 8500 years ago; Neolithic plastered skulls from Jericho; huge anthropomorphic sarcophagus from the Iron Age found in Amman; the Nabataean fish-goddess from the temple of Khirbet et-Tannur, and the Tyche of Amman, the white marble bust of the protector of Roman Philadelphia.

(Translated by Google) It is the museum located within the archaeological site of the Acropolis of Amman. You will not need a ticket because it is included in what you had when you first entered the archaeological site. It has stairs so people with limited mobility will find it particularly difficult. It has many exhibits from different periods, but I would say that the site needs better maintenance. Good experience, but I think it could get better. (Original) Είναι το μουσείο που βρίσκεται μέσα στον αρχαιολογικό χώρο της Ακρόπολης του Αμμάν. Δεν θα χρειαστείς εισιτήριο, γιατί συμπεριλαμβάνεται σε αυτό που είχες όταν μπήκες αρχικά στον αρχαιολογικό χώρο. Έχει σκαλοπάτια οπότε άτομα περιορισμένης κινητικότητας θα το βρούν ιδιαιτέρως δύσκολο. Έχει πολλά εκθέματα από διάφορες περιόδους, αλλά θα έλεγα οτι ο χώρος χρειάζεται μια καλύτερη συντήρηση. Καλή εμπειρία, αλλά θεωρώ οτι θα μπορούσε να γίνει καλύτερη.

Free museum, I would say, the exhibition is a better word for describing what it is. Objects, statues are from the iron and bronze age, not well described, put in the old way of style of presenting the exhibits. Good to go inside and look around, 15 minutes for this is more than enough.

Not seeing something special, the building inside citadel, fee 3 jd.

(Translated by Google) When you enter, you will need to enter your full name, nationality and how many visitors you are. There is no entrance as you have the jordan pass upon entering the archaeological site. It is impossible for a person with a wheelchair to enter. Many of the exhibits have elements of the Hellenistic period. Maybe some renovation, better lighting maybe. (Original) Κατά την είσοδο σου, θα χρειαστεί να γράψεις ονοματεπώνυμο, εθνικότητα και πόσοι επισκέπτες είστε. Δεν υπάρχει είσοδος καθώς έχεις το jordan pass κατά την είσοδο στον αρχαιολογικό χώρο. Ειναι αδύνατο να εισέλθει άτομο με αναπηρικό καροτσάκι. Αρκετά από τα εκθέματα έχουν στοιχεία ελληνιστικής περιόδου. Χρειάζεται ίσως κάποια ανακαίνιση, καλύτερος φωτισμός ίσως.

The Museum, love it.

Things are well set out with most signs in English as well as Arabic. Some beautiful finds from the local area- although it wasn't always obvious where the different ornaments were from.

The Amman Archaeological Museum is a must-visit attraction in Jordan, displaying an extensive collection of artifacts from various historical periods. Visitors can explore the rich archaeological heritage of the region, ranging from prehistoric to Islamic times.

Nice museum revealing the history of Jordan, worth the time and recommended to visit.

Loved the pieces and the history behind the place📜

Nicely presented history of the Jordan. The exhibits are great. A lot of information in a small space.

Very nice museum located on the top of a hill with fantastic views of Amman City

Beautiful historical place And the staff are very nice🌸 Their smile is enough 💛

You can see the Romanian Civilization here, and a very old history Jordan is a place where the old civilization occupy the land you can check all the history here I really had fun visiting the museum you can visit the museum with your family, friends and groups also the space is very nice Don't miss watching the sun set and Old Amman view

Nice collection of articles recovered during excavation. Throws light on ancieny history of Jordan. Should not be missed.

The most important museum in Jordan, this a well designed museum that shows the history of Jordan in chronological order, with very rich display of rare and beautiful objects from Jordan and Palestine. You truly gets very good understanding of how important the location of Jordan was through the ages. Unfortunately, it's not equipped with any digital tools but still very important and rich!

The museum is small, but hosts the collection of great discoveries. You cannot miss it when you go to visit the Citadel. My favourite thing was the map of the Holy Land behind the counter.

Gorgeous museum which holds items dating back to apporoximately 500,000 years ago. It feels like a journey through the past, the walls have posters explaining the history of the different time periods and the corresponding artifacts. It is well-organized and the staff are very kind and welcoming. I recommend coming here especially if you love history.

This is located at the Citadel and is included in your ticket to the Citadel. It's a small museum and can be done quickly. It can get crowded inside but it's worth stopping in.

An ok spot to stop in while visiting the citadel, however, in the context of museums, feels a bit lacklustre.

Love how it's laid out woth the history dating back almost 10000 years ago. Lots of cool little artifacts and things to see. In English and Arabic.

In a busy city on an island of calm the Jordan Museum is fantastic. We purposely went to see the Dead Sea scrolls and after being to there and experiencing the surrounding land the find was all the more incredible . The exhibits and exhibitions are well curated and have lots of hands on information to keep children interested. A great visit and lovely helpful staff.

An amazing and nostalgic experience. To visit the area so famously described in the Bible and imagined what it was like while Jesus walked on earth and see the actual site where he was baptized. The journey to the site is by bus after you have paid your entrace fee, prepare to walk so dress comfortable and wear appropriate shoes. A hat also and drinking water.

The Jordan Archaeological Museum, located within the Amman Citadel, is an museum that showcases some of the most important archaeological finds from throughout Jordan's rich history.

The museum that’s inside Amman Citadel. It’s small but worth going in to since it’s included in your entry.

As always 😘 live this place where is so close to where I lives # love Amman Jordan 👍 🇯🇴❤️

(Translated by Google) The Archaeological Museum of Jordan is located in Amman in the Citadel. Its construction dates back to 1951 and houses collections of Jordanian archaeological sites including statues, jewels and coins. We have been there several years and we found it very interesting also because we love visiting museums. (Original) Il Museo archeologico della Giordania si trova ad Amman nella Cittadella. La sua costruzione risale al 1951 ed ospita collezioni dei siti archeologici giordani tra cui statue, gioielli e monete.

amman citadel

(Translated by Google) The museum is small compared to the amount of exhibits (some very interesting and extremely precious) but all in all well defined. Display cases and display cases could show better indications; there is no real recommended circuit or tour, the management could improve the experience by hiring guides or maybe students for explanations. Overall a small, interesting but conceptually outdated museum. Still worth visiting. (Original) Il museo è piccolo rispetto alla quantità di reperti (alcuni molto interessanti ed estremamente preziosi) ma tutto sommato ben definito. Le teche e le vetrine potrebbero mostrare indicazioni migliori; non esiste un vero e proprio circuito o giro consigliato, la gestione potrebbe migliorare l'esperienza assumendo guide o magari studenti per le spiegazioni. Nel complesso e un piccolo, interessante ma concettualmente antiquato museo. Comunque da visitare.

(Translated by Google) It must be visited by all Jordanians. (Original) يجب زيارته من جميع الأردنيين.

Recommend this place

There are really wonderful artifacts here. Easy to miss given the scope of the Citadel (in which it’s located) and in comparison to the robust Jordan Museum, there are some unique items here to view. The museum curates a wide historic range which only reinforces what you see outside the museum: a continuity of history on this hill in Jordan.

Small but nice.

Not bad Small museum Some history of Jordan

If you are in Amman you must visit

Worth a visit. Some interesting pieces to see here

This is a really nice museum with some great artifacts.

(Translated by Google) Very Jamiel (Original) جميييل جداً

Interesting to visit,

(Translated by Google) What I liked best in this archeological museum was the very spacious outdoor area. When the weather is nice you have a wonderful view of the city of Amman from here. It is better to leave children at home ... (Original) Mir hat in diesem archeologischen Museum hauptsächlich der sehr weitläufige Außenbereich am besten gefallen. Bei schönem Wetter hat man von hier acu einen wunderbaren Blick auf die Stadt Amman. Kinder sollte man besser zuhause lassen...

(Translated by Google) The museum offer a good overview of the eras in the area. Unfortunately, a lot would have to be done here to make it "tasty" again. However, you should definitely visit this museum. (Original) Das Museum bieten einen guten Überblick über die Epochen im Gebiet. Leider müsste hier einiges gemacht werden um es wieder "schmackhaft" zu machen. Allerdings sollte man sich dieses Museum unbedingt anschauen.

The place is old and needs renovations and better presentation of the artifacts

(Translated by Google) It was so beautiful (Original) لقد كان شئ في منتهى الجمال

(Translated by Google) Dusty, almost precarious, with however attentive staff, it contains extremely important finds from Amman and Jordan collected quickly. Worth visiting. (Original) Polveroso, quasi precario, con personale comunque abbastanza attento, contiene reperti estremamente importanti di Amman e della Giordania raccolti in modo sbrigativo. Vale la pena visitarlo.

(Translated by Google) The museum's collection is very diverse, and there are some glass collections, indicating that before ancient times, humans had learned how to use the characteristics of glass and make various colors, and even had a very elegant beauty. (Original) 博物館的收藏十分多元，還有一些玻璃的收藏，說明遠古之前人類已經懂得利用玻璃的特性和製作各種顏色，甚至有非常優雅的美感。
