Museum located in a house in the old village of Umm Qais, displaying artefacts found on the site during various excavations

The Archaeology Museum occupies one of the most beautiful houses in the ancient village of Umm Qais, dating from the Ottoman period. It exhibits artifacts found on the site during various excavations. The statue of the goddess Tychee and the mosaic of the underground mausoleum can be admired. The latter contains the names of the deceased owners (Valentinanos, Eustathia and Protogenia). You will also notice an amazing sculpture of a rattlesnake coiled on itself.

Petit musée où on peut voir des portes en pierre très imposantes. En montant sur le toit par un escalier il y a un beau point de vue de la région. Ne pas hésiter à prendre la voiture pour faire 2 km et voir la mer de Galilée (Lac de Tibériade) en sortant du site à droite pas besoin de payer un guide, c'est facile à trouver, il suffit de demander aux checks points.
