A park of interesting remains 2 steps from St-Georges church, including an exhibition of mosaics from various sites at the entrance

Close to the church of Saint George, this park contains interesting remains. Excavations have allowed, and still allow today, to discover the archaeological treasures of Madaba buried under the modern constructions. At the entrance of the park, one can see an exhibition of mosaics from several sites in the region. The oldest mosaic in the country, dating from the 1st century BC, comes from Herod's fortress at Macheronte. The entrance ticket also gives access to the Church of the Apostles, the Church of the Virgin Mary and the Hall of Hippolytus.

Visite classique. Associer à la visite l'école de mosaïque unique au monde accolée au musée, attention à la fermeture le week-end (vendredi et samedi). Presque en face du musée et un peu avant il y a une boutique vendant des mosaïques intransportables en avion mais la marchande sera très contente de discuter pour vous expliquer ce que représente ses mosaïques et de les laisser être photograpiées.
