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; there’s even a two-room walk-through reproduction of an ancient subterranean tomb.
