    يقع متحف دار السرايا على السفح الجنوبي لتل إربد الأثري وهو بناء قديم يعود للفترة العثمانية ويؤرخ لذلك نقش حجري يعلو البوابة الرئيسية يشير إلى العام 1886م، وهو التاريخ الذي حول فيه البناء من أنقاض قلعة قديمة غلى مقرا للحاكم العثماني. عملت دائرة الأثار العامة ومنذ عام 1994 على استملاك البناء وإنقاذه من الزوال واستمرت أعمال الصيانة والترميم والتأهيل لتحول البناء إلى متحف افتتح عام 2007. العرض المتحفي يتمثل في سبع قاعات للعرض تبدأ بقاعة إربد وخصصت لعرض معلومات تتعلق بتأريخ ومعالم المدينة ثم قاعة التعدين وقاعة العصور الكلاسيكية وقاعة المنحوتات وقاعة العصور الإسلامية انتهاء بقاعة الفسيفساء، وقد اعتمد مبدأ التسلسل التاريخي في عرض القطع الأثرية إلى جانب العرض النوعي في قاعة التعدين والفسيفساء، في حين استغلت الساحة السماوية للبناء كمعرض مفتوح للعديد من المنحوتات الحجرية من توابيت وبوابات حجرية وتاجيات. عدد القطع المعروضة: 600.عدد القطع الكلي المسجلة: 7144.عدد لوحات الفسيفساء: 85.عدد قطع العملة: 1334.

    A very beautiful museum. The Ottoman building is in excellent condition and excellently restored. In addition to the museum, there is also the Irbid Antiquities Directorate inside the building. There are a good number of exhibits from different historical eras. It takes less than an hour to carefully visit the entire museum. There are bathrooms for visitors.

    I really enjoyed this museum. It is one of two main museums in Irbid. It is really cool because originally the structure was an Ottoman Castle, abandoned, turned into a prison, and finally turned into a museum. The architecture of the building is typical Ottoman style with beautiful rocks, and the museum itself has many artifacts to see. Especially mosaics floors they have taken from older excavation sited. The entrance is not expensive and is a must visit if you are in Irbid.

    The building itself is actually very nice. It was used as a prison up to the 90ies. After that it was turned into a small museum. There are some artifacts and tools. It is not a huge collection though. If you are in Irbid anyway, you can pay it a visit but it is not really a must-see

    يأخذنا المتحف في رحلة تاريخية ثريّة عبر العصور القديمة لمدينتنا اربد، وكأنك عشت فيها.. المتحف يتميز بترتيب الآثار حسب السلم الزمني الذي تعاقبت عليه المدينة، بالإضافة إلى رتابة المكان وجماليته وموقعه المتميز في وسط المدينة التاريخي.. ينصح وبشدة زيارة هذا المكان.. زيارة موفقة للجميع :')

    دار السرايا متحف أثري يضم مصنعات القديمة كالأدوات والأواني الحجرية والفخارية والعظمية وقطع تعبر عن عمل فني خلاق كالأواني المزخرفة والأختام والحلي والتماثيل ولوحات الفسيفساء . وقد جاءت هذه المعروضات من تنقيبات أثرية قامت بها الدائرة أو البعثات في مواقع أثرية في محافظة إربد .

    I loved it's style, the staff are so friendly, the place is very interesting, it was built in 1886 in the time of Osman empire, became later a prison, and in 1994 it was reformed to become again, a museum.. I recommend it if you are looking for beauty and simplicity in history, it worths a visit !! You can come alone no one will bother you, or you can come within a group, all good, it's calm !! The entrance costs 0.25 JD for jordanians, and 2.50 JD for foreigners !! It's cheap anyway..!!

    (Translated by Google) The building is wonderful and historic. The museum lacks many artifacts, as the city of Irbid is rich in archaeological sites for all ages. Through my tour I did not find any distinct artifacts. Staff there honor the dead buried. I hope to develop the site and enrich it with more content (Original) المبنى رائع وتاريخي. ينقص المتحف الكثير من القطع الاثرية فمدينة اربد غنية بالمواقع الاثرية لجميع العصور. من خلال جولتي لم اجد اية قطع اثرية متميزة الموظفين هناك اكرام الميت دفنه. اتمنى تطوير الموقع واثرائه بمحتوى اكثر
