Qasr Al Hosn is the oldest standing building in Abu Dhabi city. This palace fort is more than 260 years old and was home to the ruling family then. It stood on the shores along with the early settlement and served as an important landmark overseeing the coastal activities. It has four watch towers at four corners and might have been a centre to monitor the area all around.
Over a period of time due to the reclamation of land and urban development, Qasr Al Hosn which once touched the shores, now stands in the middle of the city.
Qasr Al Hosn is a heritage building representing the culture and traditions of UAE.

What a lovely place in the heart of Abu Dhabi! Just going there for a nice, peaceful walk, and maybe getting a cup of coffee in one of the many cafes nearby, can instantly make your day. I would recommend going there during sunset so that you see best of both worlds (daylight and nightlight.)

This is a preserved fort that is in the city now. Not much to see actually. But the free shuttle bus to other tourist attractions has a stop here. So, if you are thinking to take the free bus, this is a good place to be. For more information about the bus, go Google visit Abu Dhabi.

We visited Qasr Al Hosn last Eid Mubarak 2023. Place was great for Culture/Museum lovers especially this Museum connotes of how the country UAE start with. Brings back the mem’ries totally, seems like your part of UAE grows when you visit this place.

Thanks Qasr Al Hosn for letting us in and a pleasure to gather those old equipment displayed in Al Qasr Al Hosn.

I visited the museum during May. The reception staff were very friendly. They accept Fazaa or Esaad for discounted entry tickets. The galleries are well designed and tells a great store. Highly recommended. The mosque architecture is amazing. We had to walk for Al dhur prayer in the heat but it was worth it.
