Set in a traditional house which once belonged to a local pearl merchant, Sharjah Heritage Museum explores various aspects of Emirati culture, religious traditions, and everyday life on a desert shore of the Arabian Gulf.

Sharjah Heritage Museum has six galleries covering the local lifestyle, celebrations, traditional knowledge, religion, and folklore of Sharjah.

Situated in the very heart of Sharjah, The Heritage Museum presents a variety of authentic artifacts with explanations in both English and Arabic. Among the exhibits, visitors can discover local textiles, al manyour, a belt made from 307 dried goat hooves worn during the noban dance, and aftakh, a golden toe ring worn by Bedouin women.

Visitors of all ages can enjoy engaging folk tales and local proverbs, as well as games and puzzles.

Being an important member of the list of Sharjah Museums, Sharjah Heritage Museum is definitely worth a visit.
