Agatha Christie’s house in Baghdad

In the heart of Baghdad, the name of the famous British writer Agatha Christie is associated with a house where she stayed during her visits to Iraq, accompanying her husband, archaeologist Max Mallowan, on archaeological excavations.

Iraq became an important source of inspiration for Agatha Christie, particularly during her journeys through Baghdad and the archaeological sites of Mesopotamia. Her experiences and observations later found their way into some of her writings and memoirs.
