"Al Ain Palace Museum originally functioned as the residence of the United Arab Emirates’ Ruling Family and the Ruler’s administrative centre. Al Ain Palace was built in 1937 and then extended by the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, Founding Father of the UAE, who used it as his residence until 1966. It was renovated and converted to a house museum in 2001. Some of the architectural features typical of the Transition Period (1930s–60s ) of building in Al Ain at this time can still be seen at the palace." https://abudhbiculture.ae/en/heritage-records/heritage-and-cultural-sites/al-ain-palace-museum
