The interactive digital experience titled "Bahrain Heritage Tour" will take place from 10–23 November 2024, organised by the Bahrain Authority for Culture and Antiquities in collaboration with the French Embassy in the Kingdom of Bahrain. By integrating state-of-the-art digital technologies, the experience will provide the public in Bahrain from school and university students as well as the local community, an opportunity to explore the Dilmun and Tylos periods in an innovative way for the first time in the Kingdom.


This initiative is part of efforts to enhance public access to Bahraini cultural heritage and introduce the local community to this unique historical legacy through modern technology. The project aims to expand the reach of the exhibition “From Dilmun to Tylos: An Archaeological Journey in the Kingdom of Bahrain” hosted by the Louvre Museum in Paris, through an innovative digital experience.


Over the course of two weeks, the project, overseen by Mr. Julien Cuny, Head of the French archaeological mission in Bahrain, will travel from north to south across Bahrain's governorates, stopping at several public and private schools and universities to allow students to experience the one-of-a-kind interactive experience. Additionally, it will be set up at different public archaeological and cultural sites, where the public is welcome to visit. This will give visitors the opportunity to interact more deeply with the sites, their history and the people who inhabited them thousands of years ago.
