Very nice and interesting, liked how the museum brings into the mix the variety of tribes, cultures and religion in different stages of human life.
Definately worthed to go if you want to know Ethiopian culture and the people.
Great collection. Passionate guides. Homey cafe.
Excellently displayed Ethnography, music instruments and Christian icons. As this was a palace of Emperor Haile Selassie you can visit his old bedroom and bathroom!
Very beautiful place as it was the palace of Haile Selassie. Foreigners entry price is 100birr. Even if you don't want to go inside, there is a very calm and peaceful area outside where you can sit and relax.
Very nice museum, much better and interesting that the more famous National Museum. It offers more than one thing in the same place: it’s inside the university grounds (so you can also take a peek on its other buildings), it’s a very interesting and informative ethnographic museum and at the same time offers a quite comprehensive collection of religious icons mostly from Gondar region. Finally it’s housed in the former royal palace of Haile Selassie, so you can visit his personal chambers.
Tour Guide In Addis Ababa
Ethnological Museum
ハイレセラシェ皇帝が1953年まで住んでいた場所を大学にし、その後博物館にした由緒ある民族学博物館です。
アフリカ屈指の美しい博物館として知られ、館内には宗教や楽器を初め、写真や絵画などエチオピアの文化が感じられる資料が展示されています。
「ハイレスラシェの間」には、皇帝が使用していたベッドやシャワールームがそのまま残されています。
This is a good museum with a collection of quite a number of cultural exhibitions in one place. Some of Ethiopia’s more than 80 tribes are well described with in the Museum. It operates 6 days of the week except on Monday. Opening hours are 8:30AM-5:00PM. It is located inside the main campus of Addis Ababa University, and the building used to serve as Emperor Haileselasse living palace.
Very good museum about the life and rituals of Ethiopians earlier and today. Museum building is the former Emperor's residence and now belongs to the university campus.
Entrance fee for foreigners around 4 USD equivalent (status June 2017). There are free English speaking guides offering tours through the museum, highly recommended to take such a guided tour (due to limited English written explanations).
A good place to start if you are interested in Ethiopian history and culture. Addis isn't know for its outstanding museums, rather it is known for its mix of cultures from every region and you get a glimpse of this here.
Great museum, but wrong location on the map
