Herat Provincial Museum
Street address: Citadel (Arg), Herat, Herat Province, Afghanistan
Telephone: 93 (40) 222310
Contact: Abdul Zahir Fayeq Director
Dates and duration: Not open to the public without permission
This museum is located in the Arg or Citadel, which is also home to the military, and is thus not open to tourists. Artifacts from the Timurud and Kandaran civilisations were held here but objects depicting animals or people were destroyed during the Taliban regime. A new museum will open in 2003 in the centre of town near the cinema intersection.
