Travellers in Egypt

Mummy: the inside story


Mummy Extended until 14 August

An extraordinary, virtual reality film narrated by Sir Ian McKellen and accompanying exhibition. For the first time, the unopened 3000-year-old mummy of Nesperennub, priest of Karnak, reveals its secrets. Data obtained using a CT scanner has been transformed into a unique ‘virtual mummy’. Look inside the mummy-case, under the wrappings, even travel inside the body, and wonder at Nesperennub’s recreated face. An unmissable and extraordinary opportunity to learn more about the life and death of the Ancient Egyptians.
