Staff of Moses
According to an identifying document at the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Moses's staff would supposedly be on display today at the Topkapı Palace, Istanbul, Turkey. The Topkapi Palace holds other reputedly holy relics, most notably those attributed to the Islamic prophet, Muhammad. (Such as his bow, his sword, his footprint, and even a tooth.) Topkapı Palace was officially designated a museum in 1924, and the holy relics were placed on public view on 31 August 1962. It is said that Sultan Selim I (1512–1520) brought the holy relics to Topkapi Palace after conquering Egypt in 1517.

Though not opened to public, the 48 Underground Palaces act as time capsules, storing memories of the human race. Every year, the Underground Palace Treasures Enshrinement Ceremony is held for the entombment of the artifacts that have been donated from around the world. The goal is to preserve human culture, people's faith and their lifestyles. The various artifacts collected are either of great historical, contemporary or commemorative value. One of these underground palaces will be opened every one hundred years, then other items will be stored and the palace will be sealed again. For people to understand the function of the Underground Palace, there is a permanent exhibition located on the 1st floor of the Main Hall called the Museum of Underground Palaces.
