Qasr Al Hosn
A museum telling the story of Abu Dhabi and its people, Qasr Al Hosn includes Abu Dhabi’s first permanent structure, a coral and sea stone watchtower, built to protect the settlement of Abu Dhabi established on the island in the 1760s. Over the centuries, it has been home to the ruling family, the seat of government, a consultative council and a national archive; it now stands as the nation’s living memorial and the narrator of Abu Dhabi’s history through objects, artifacts, and archival material.
