For more than 100 years, Qasr Al Muwaiji has played a major role in the history of the United
Arab Emirates located at the western approach to Al Ain city, Qasr Al Muwaiji has played an
important role in the history of the United Arab Emirates and represents a fine example of early
20th-century mud brick architecture.
Qasr Al Muwaiji was built in the time of Sheikh Zayed bin Khalifa Al Nahyan, Zayed the First (r.
1855-1909) and his son, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed bin Khalifa Al Nahyan. Later it became the
home and administrative base for the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, Founding Father
of the UAE, when in 1946 he became the Ruler’s Representative in the Al Ain Region.
His eldest son, His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE and Ruler
of Abu Dhabi, was born at Qasr Al Muwaiji two years later and spent much of his youth there,
learning from his father.
منذ أكثر من 100 عام، لعب قصر المويجيعي في مدينة العين دوراً مهماً في تاريخ الدولة، واليوم يفتح أبوابه للزوار للتعرف على أحد الشواهد العريقة على تاريخ دولة الإمارات العربية. شهد قصر المويجعي، الكائن في الجهة الغربية لمدينة العين، مرحلة مهمة في تاريخ دولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة، ويمثل بناؤه نموذجاً راقياً لفن العمارة التي كانت تعتمد على الطوب/اللبن في أوائل القرن العشرين.
شُيد قصر المويجعي في عهد الشيخ زايد بن خليفة الأول (1855-1909) على يد ابنه الشيخ خليفة بن زايد بن خليفة. وبعد تولي المغفور له بإذن الله، الشيخ زايد بن سلطان آل نهيان، طيب اللَّه ثراه، منصب ممثل الحاكم عام 1946 في منطقة العين، انتقل للإقامة في قصر المويجعي ليصبح بيتاً لعائلته ومقراً لحكمه.
وُلد ابنه الأكبر، صاحب السمو الشيخ خليفة بن زايد آل نهيان، في قصرالمويجعي بعد عامين، حيث أمضى أكثر أيام الصِبَا في هذا القصر ينهل من فكر والده في القيادة الحكيمة والسياسة.
