The National Museum of Somalia (Somali: Matxafka Qarankais, Arabic: متحف وطني للصومال Mathaf Watani lil-Sumal, Italian: Museo Nazionale della Somalia) is a national museum in Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia. It was established in 1933 by the colonial authorities in Italian Somaliland. After shutting down operations in 1991, it later reopened, and presently houses a number of important historical artifacts. In September 2019, the museum was rebuilt; almost 30 years after its destruction.
