“Small Temple for the Karnak triad dedicated by Ranses III”

Jan 2020

The small Temple of Ramses III which is dedicated to the triad of Karnak and was intended to store the holy barques of Amun, Mut and Khonshu. Ramses III's temple was build to be a miniature version of his Temple of Medinat Habu. Four osirid columns feature on the outside of the portals for the scared barques. Most people walk pass it without even having a look. The reason for his building the temple and the holding place for the scared barques is mentioned in the Sound and Light show.

Beautiful temple!

Feb 2024 • Couples

The Temple of Ramses III is located right at the entrance to the Karnak temple. The imposing columns with hieroglyphics attract the attention of anyone who enters there. It is well preserved, taking into account the date of its construction. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes and preferably go with a guide. Unmissable!
