Sursock Museum

TIME : 2016/2/17 17:58:46

This privately owned contemporary art museum is housed in a 1902 mansion located in one of Achrafiye's most attractive streets. It originally opened its doors to the public in 1952 but at the time of research was closed for restoration. When it re-opens, expect to be impressed by the US$12 million extension, which has been designed by Frech architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte and Lebanese architect Jacques Aboukhaled.
