The MET houses collections from nearly all cultures and ages. It was created in 1866 and has more than 2 million objects on display. The MET has Modern wing, Greek and Roman Galleries, European and Asian art, Egyptian art and American art. The most famous object at the MET is in the Egyptian Temple of Dendur dating 15 BC.
