About

Grave robbers are after a pharaoh's tomb, and Anubis has torn the spell that seals it into four pieces. Kids track down the keepers of each piece around the museum, pass the task each one sets, then stand before a dark Osiris to close the tomb. Between missions there's spooky face painting and a mini sarcophagus to craft. Part of the Antikenmuseum's 60th-anniversary year, it suits school-age kids best.

CHF 10 per family, snack included
