Nabu Museum

The Nabu Museum is a museum in El-Heri, in Ras Al Shaqa’, Lebanon.[1][2][3]

It opened in 2018, having been built in just eight months by businessman Jawad Adra to house his collection of about 2,000 items including both contemporary works of art and antiquities.[4][5]

The building was designed by Iraqi sculptor Dia Azzawi and Iraqi-Canadian artist Mahmoud Obaidi.[5][2]
