Awesome museum at a cheap price of 20 ETB. The highlight of the institution is definitely the guide who takes you through the building. He speaks perfect English, is extremely enthusiastic and has really funny things to say about the former oversized king with several wives. Definitely worth the time.

It is a must see place with historical artifacts. The museum contains historical artifacts from Aba Jifar to the present, and the items used by kings when they visited Jimma are kept as relics. It is a recommended place for anyone visiting Jimma. Also Abajfar Palace is far from the museum but is a great heritage worth visiting.

The Jimma Musuem has a repository of tools, attire, gifts and other articles of Abba Jifar, the last King of Jimma. It also features religious manuscripts and old pictures. It might not be one of the best museums you get to see, but I am personally happy they have managed to collect various items in an organized manner which is not very common in Ethiopia. Located right at the heart of the center and affordable prices (ETB 5 for Ethiopians and ETB 25 for Tourists). Highly recommended. Photography is prohibited so unfortunately no photos🙁

It's a museum in the center of city of Jimma. You will learn a lot about the story of the legendary King Aba Jefar who was the ruler of Jimma kifle hager in the 19th century. Most of the items, clothings, gifts and all the home appliances they used to use by that time. You will have a guided visit in the museum, a well prepared guide helped us learn a lot. Photography is not allowed in the museum
