The National Museum and House of Culture, formerly known as the National Museum Dar es Salaam, is the largest museum in the country with collections and exhibitions covering the fields of Archaeology, Biology, Ethnography, History and Arts. Open daily. The House of Culture is an exciting project which has transformed the old King Gorge V museum in Dar-Es-Salaam into a modern tribute to African Cultural heritage in Tanzania. It is a great place for children and young people to engage with and learn about local heritage and culture. The House of Culture was launched officially on 3rd December 2011 by President Dr. Jakaya Kikwete. - do take a visit.
