Radwani House - Msheireb Museums
Overview:
First built in the 1920s, this house is located between Al-Jasrah and Msheireb, two of Doha’s oldest quarters.
The restored house presents traditional Qatari family life and provides visitors an insight into how family life evolved in Qatar over the years.
While touring Al-Radwani's house, you can get an idea of the changes brought about to family life by the discovery of oil and the arrival of electricity in the State of Qatar.
You can also earn how families were closely connected and how they spent their daily lives before the advent of modern day conveniences.
Excavation works carried out by archaeologists at Radwani House constituted the very first archaeological digs in the centre of the city. These excavations have produced a number of important finds which provide some clues to the daily life during those times.
