Ramses and the Pharaohs' Gold: The Exhibition

Direct from the Grand Egyptian Museum, a priceless collection of 180 ancient treasures.

Ramses II ruled for nearly seventy years. During his reign, he campaigned across continents and reshaped the landscape of ancient Egypt. Ramses and the Pharaohs’ Gold: The Exhibition brings together 180 extraordinary artefacts from his empire. Each one travelling on loan directly from the Grand Egyptian Museum.

These objects have never travelled beyond Egypt. They are not replicas, but original works: created more than three thousand years ago to secure a king’s name for eternity.

This landmark exhibition is a once-in a lifetime opportunity to witness the power, vision and enduring legacy of Egypt’s greatest pharaoh.

Featuring the pharaoh’s own coffin, royal treasures, and immersive galleries that transport visitors more than 3,000 years into the past, this exhibition arrives at Neon at Battersea Power Station in London following acclaimed runs in Paris, San Francisco, Sydney, and Tokyo.

👑 Opening 28th February.

Description
More influential than Tutankhamun, though far less mythologised, King Ramses II, widely known as Ramses the Great, ruled Egypt for nearly 67 years. 3,000 years later and he still remains one of history’s most iconic pharaohs. Known for his extensive monument-building, military strategy and diplomacy, and a vast dynasty of more than 100 children, this exhibition invites you to witness the power of a reign and explore the rise of a ruler who sought not only to command an empire, but to secure his immortality for millennia to come.

This Exhibition is produced by Victory Hill Exhibitions, part of NEON Group.
