One Way Ticket to Egypt

On the rocks the daily life of ancient Egypt is depicted through magnificent bas-reliefs, ancient paintings, and papyrus. Gigantic construction sites and wonders of ancient architecture, the pyramids are being built right before the eyes of visitors: one by one, the colossal blocks stack up to erect the tombs of eternal kings, guarded by the majestic Sphinx.

From Khufu to Ramesses II

Travel back in time and rediscover Egypt! That's what the exhibition at the Carrières des Lumières offers to visitors. Through the masterpieces of this fascinating civilization that spans three millennia, you can find monumental sculptures of the sovereigns whose names resonate in history: Khafre, Hatshepsut, Thutmose III, Akhenaten, and Nefertiti... If you want to go see the exhibition, we strongly recommend getting your tickets in advance here. The Carrières are open in April, May, June, September, and October: every day from 9:30 am to 7 pm and in July and August: every day from 9 am to 7:30 pm.
