The "House of Islamic Art" in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, presented 13 rare and valuable artifacts to the Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan.
The artifacts will be displayed in Uzbekistan from September 2025 to March 2026, the ISM press service reported.
"They are inextricably linked with the history, culture of the Islamic world and the spiritual heritage of Uzbekistan, allowing our compatriots and foreign guests to become closely acquainted with the rich historical treasury. Among the exhibits, one of the rarest is the keys to the Holy Kaaba from the Mamluk period, made of brass, decorated with silver, and engraved with verses from the Quran," the report says.
This cooperation between the two countries not only promotes the cultural heritage of the Islamic world, but also serves as an important step in strengthening cultural ties between Saudi Arabia and Uzbekistan, exchanging experience in the field of science and art.
