Penn Museum

Focused on detailing and expanding on our understanding of the human experience, The University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, commonly known as the Penn Museum, is one of the world’s finest archaeology and anthropology museums. Explore a variety of exhibits with artifacts from ancient Egypt, Asia, Mesopotamia, the Americas and so much more! See a 3,000-year-old Sphinx, over 250 Mayan relics, carved ivory and tablets with some of the earliest writing known to man. Tadpoles will love the Artifact Lab where they can watch conservators work on real mummies and then hop over to Cartifacts for a hands-on experience with reproductions!
