About
Hidden in the vaulted substructures beneath the Temple of Jupiter and in the citadel's south tower, this museum turns the ruins of Baalbek into a walk-through story. Its displays cover the site's rediscovery and excavation, Roman statuary and mosaics, and the medieval fortress that later crowned the sanctuary. It is reached through the main archaeological site and included with the entry ticket.
