Lonely Planet review for Egypt Centre
Swansea University is in the suburb of Sketty halfway between the city centre and the Mumbles and possesses the UK's biggest collection of Egyptian antiquities outside the British Museum. Opened to the public in 1998, the volunteer-run Egypt Centre displays a fascinating collection of everyday ancient Egyptian artefacts, ranging from a 4000-year-old razor and cosmetic trays to a mummified crocodile.
