NOW OPEN: The Discovery Center of Idaho is excited to host one of the largest collections of real mummies and related artifacts ever assembled. Mummies of the World: The Exhibition presents a one-of-a-kind collection of naturally and intentionally preserved human and animal mummies. This compelling exhibition, presented with reverence and dignity, includes ancient mummies from South America, Europe and ancient Egypt, dating as far back as 4,500 years, and this Spring, we’re bringing it to Boise, Idaho.

Visitors will embark on a journey into the extraordinary world of mummies and the mummification process. Through modern science, engaging interactives and multimedia exhibits, this exhibition reveals how the scientific studies of mummies provide a window into the lives of ancient people from every region of the world, offering unprecedented insights into past cultures and civilizations.
