Cambodian National Museum

Cambodian National Museum

More than 100,000 people visit the Cambodian National Museum in Phnom Penh each year. My culture has been making beautiful art for centuries. All across my country are remnants of pre-historic people dating all the back to Neolithic times. While several sites have been found including: Samrong Sen, Anlong Phdao, Melou Prei, and Laang Spean, it's believed that many more have yet to be discovered.
My people have worked with ceramic, bronze, and at Angkor Borei many stone sculptures have been found.
The National Museum was designed by George Groslier (1887-1945). Its architecture is synonymous with "traditional Khmer." Groslier was associated with the Ecole des Arts Cambodgiens in 1917 and became known as the Musée du Cambodge in 1919. In 1920, the museum was officially rename Musée Albert Sarraut after then Governor-General of Indochina.
