“First opened in 1903, the museum was closed in January 2014 after a bomb attack on the Cairo police directorate across the street severely damaged its facade and dozens of exhibits. It reopened last week after a two-year restoration program funded by the United Arab Emirates and UNESCO.” http://internationalnewslive.com/for-first-time-after-bombing-three-years-ago-cairos-museum-of-islamic-art-is-open/
