Bait Khalid Bin Ibrahim
Mission of the Museum
Bait Khalid bin Ibrahim, the house of one of the leading pearl merchants (Tawaweesh) in the Gulf, reflects Bahraini architecture and design. Its mission is to introduce visitors to this architectural style as being distinct from that of other traditional houses.
