Bin Matar House

Bin Matar House is a restored Muharraq merchant house built in 1905 for Salman bin Hussein Matar. The house is linked to Bahrain's pearling-era families and later served as a clinic and club before restoration by the Shaikh Ebrahim Center.

Its appeal is architectural as much as historical: palm-leaf ceilings, timber beams, and retouched walls and floors give a clear sense of how a wealthy Bahraini majlis house looked in the early 20th century.
