Exhibition

Experience the history of Qasr Al Hosn through a series of revealing exhibitions charting the development of Abu Dhabi as a city.

Qasr Al Hosn Exhibition: The Story of Abu Dhabi and its people

This exhibition tells the story of Abu Dhabi and the Emirati people. The origins of Abu Dhabi began a little over 250 years ago. Since then, the island capital has witnessed dramatic changes; the small fishing community grew into a town and then a high-rise modern city. Today Abu Dhabi is the very definition of a global city.

Visitors can learn that inextricably linked to this story is Qasr al Hosn – the first permanent building on the island, the Ruler’s Palace, a witness to the island’s origins and evolution, and a powerful symbol of the ever-developing city.
