Aga Khan Museum
What the experts agree on
This striking museum showcases over 1,000 Islamic art pieces from the Aga Khan's collection, spanning the 8th century to contemporary work. Architect Fumihiko Maki's light-filled design on a 17-acre landscaped site is as compelling as the exhibits.
“The Aga Khan Museum is dedicated to offering guests a glimpse of beautifully curated Islamic art, Iranian art, and Muslim culture in Toronto.”
