Photographer’s Note

This museum originally opened in 1962, which was moved to its present site and renamed in 1963 following a donation from His Royal Highness Prince Karim Aga Khan IV. It contains ethnographical artifacts, particularly those connected with the folk arts.

It is a repository of Maranao and other Moro artifacts, which boasts a huge collection of indigenous art and cultural materials, ethnic music, the native tools and weapons used by the Muslims, and houses with different artistic designs. It was named so in honor of King Aga Khan who contributed significantly to the realization of the museum. It is located within the sprawling Mindanao State University, Islamic City of Marawi.
