01 / The experience

### Msheireb Museums: four heritage houses

The houses at Msheireb Museums bring Doha’s history down to the scale of rooms, families and working lives. Their setting in the modern district makes the stories especially interesting: you can walk out from an account of the old neighbourhood into the city it has become.

Each house has its own subject. Radwani House looks at family life, Company House follows the people involved in Qatar’s oil industry, and Mohammed Bin Jassim House explores Msheireb’s development. Bin Jelmood House addresses slavery and its legacy, a substantial and sometimes difficult subject that may need care when visiting with younger children.

The houses form a small cluster, so you can spend time with the subjects that interest you without crossing Doha between museums. Begin at Bin Jelmood House reception for access and guided visits. Afterwards,  [Saasna](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/saasna-msheireb>)  offers Qatari cooking in Msheireb, while  [Souq Waqif](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/souq-waqif-and-falcon-souq>)  gives you market streets and more places to eat nearby. The museums close on Sundays.
