Al shindagha museum delighted visitors with the proud story of the nation’s past and reverent traditions.

It tells the story of old Emirati culture. This place featured with historical photographs, videos and touch displays. The creek sea revealed the story of trade and pearl diving. In the perfume house, you will discover the story behind Emirati fragrances. Visitors can explore Emirati culture via scent and learn stories associated with the perfumes that played an integral role in trade within the Emirates.

Breathing new life to one of the city’s oldest neighborhood’s, Al Shindagha Museum offers an inimitable glimpse into Dubai’s vibrant past.The former home of the late Sheikha Sheikha bint Saeed bin Maktoum now houses a stunning collection of artefacts highlighting the tradition of perfuming in the region. The aromas of oud waft through the hallways of all our local malls and marketplaces, while modern high-end boutiques sell exclusive scents, including the most expensive in the world.

The centre is among the first at the museum, where a total of 23 cultural houses are set to open on the banks of Dubai Creek, on the side of Bur Dubai. This one is the former home of Sheikha Sheikha bint Saeed bin Maktoum, who was an avid perfumer and had many artefacts as part of her personal collection. It is located near the Historical Documents Centre.

For the most part, the museum’s collection is made up of pieces Sheikha Sheikha had in her house, including her perfume applicator and a 28-kilogram piece of oud, a raw scent ingredient, which she donated to the museum just weeks before she died, in 2017. Other artefacts have been sourced from notable Emirati families, as well as sites such as Saruq Al Hadid, an archaeological spot in Dubai.

At the moment, you can also visit The Dubai Creek: Birth of a City pavilion, which serves as a starting point for the entire museum. It introduces visitors to the history of the emirate and takes them on a cultural journey, from the time Dubai was a small village on the banks of the Creek, to the moment it became the mega-metropolis it is today.
