Description

Temple of Dendur is a fascinating monument of ancient Egypt located at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

This unique temple was built around 15 BC and moved to the United States to protect it from flooding during the construction of the Aswan Dam.

The gallery's spacious interior, with large windows and an artificial water reservoir, perfectly recreates the temple's original setting. It is the perfect place for history and ancient art lovers to enjoy authentic Egyptian architecture without leaving New York City.
