What is pertinent to mention is that the Prince attended the event after receiving an invitation from the Egyptian President and his wife, along with eighty other kings, heads of state and government and also some international leaders.

During his time there, Prince Albert is said to have “hailed a major step in the preservation of Egyptian history and in passing on to future generations the unique testimony of ancient civilization. He emphasized how the discovery of this museum and its remarkable collections will help showcase an invaluable cultural heritage,” according to the post’s caption.

What is also relevant to mention is that “after the speeches and artistic performances, the prince visited the museum’s galleries and admired, among other things, Tutankhamun’s treasure, which was excavated in 1922 in a tomb that remained intact in the Valley of the Kings.”
