A palace built in the twentieth century as a royal residence in Jeddah, later used for state functions and eventually converted for museum use. Its architecture blends modern construction with decorative elements drawn from regional traditions, set within walled grounds. The site is associated with early Saudi state ceremonies and diplomatic gatherings held in the port city. Having housed heritage displays, it stands as a reminder of Jeddah's role as a governmental centre before the rise of Riyadh.
