Name_of_museum Egypt Centre
Notes The museums collection was originally established as the Wellcome Museum and opened to the public in 1976. However, it appears that the museum was underutilised and had a low public profile. The museum was effectively re-founded in 1998 as the Egypt Centre with a new building and a renewed committment to outreach and access.
