Museum of Parliamentary Life

The Museum of Parliamentary Life consists of three parts: the middle part containing the parliament hall, the right wing, which is the exhibition halls that tell the story of parliamentary life; the left wing which contains the offices of the head of the senate, the speaker of the parliament and VIP halls.
The Museum was used for the meetings of the legislative council in the early forties then for the National Assembly between 1947 and 1978. It was the locale where the martyr King Abdullah I Bin al-Hussein declared the independence of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan on May 25th 1946. It was also there that King Tala Bin Abdullah and King Hussein Bin Talal took the oath of office.
