Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum devoted to the study of mysticism and metaphysics and all things Egyptian - San Jose, California

West of downtown, this educational Egyptian museum is one of San Jose’s more unusual attractions. Its extensive collection includes statues, household items and mummies (both human and animal); there’s even a two-room walk-through reproduction of an ancient subterranean tomb.
