It had been neglected by the people for many years which brought it to a need of rehabilitation and conservation. In 2008 the Mission of Archeology of Italy announced the project of restoration of this Islamic Art Museum in collaboration with UNESCO.

During this project the Afghanistan’s national museum also took part in setting up a huge exhibition regarding the Islamic art museum and to celebrate its restoration in 2013. By the year 2013 the Islamic Art museum had become the center of all the Islamic arts in Ghazni or even Afghanistan.
