The Islamic Museum is a museum on the Temple Mount in the Old City of Jerusalem. On display are exhibits from ten periods of Islamic history encompassing several Muslim regions and is located adjacent to al-Aqsa Mosque. Originally, the Islamic Museum was an assembly hall for the adjacent Fakhr al-Din Mohammad Madrasa (School), built by al-Mansur Qalawun during Mamluk rule of Palestine in 1282 CE. The modern museum was built by the Supreme Muslim Council in 1923. Shadia Yousef Touqan was the head planner of the site. Khader Salameh is the head curator of the museum. (via Wikipedia)
