The Museum has five large halls in which one may admire masterpieces from Saqqara such as a Greco-Roman mummy discovered by Zahi Hawass during excavation at Teti's pyramid complex, and the magnificent pair of statues of High Priest of Mut Amenemhotep and his wife, from the 19th Dynasty, found near the causeway of the Unas complex.

The fourth hall is called "Saqqara style" and shows vessels and statues in wood and stone.

Prof. Zahi Hawass said: "I felt that we should call it the Imhotep Museum in tribute to the first architect to use stone rather than perishable materials for construction on a large scale. This man was second only to the King and in the late period was worshipped as a god."
