When the museum opened, because the Taiwan government had not yet allocated the cultural relics in place, and the museum had no funds to purchase them, most of the models or reproductions of the cultural relics displayed were ridiculed as "vacuum Museum". In the spring of 1956, the Ministry of Education officially ordered that 38 boxes of cultural relics transported to Taiwan by the former Henan Museum entrusted to the joint management office of the Central Museum of the National Palace Museum, and 51 boxes of cultural relics returned by Japan after the second world war be handed over to the Museum of cultural relics and art for collection.

On October 10, 1957, the Museum of cultural relics was named the National Museum of history.

Exhibitions in the period of the Republic of China

In the early years of the Republic of China, the Beijing government "regarded the capital as the capital, and the Department of cultural relics should not be abolished" (National Museum of history series, Volume 1, 1926), "but there was no special department of cultural relics in the capital, so it suggested that the museum should be set up in Beijing first.". In July 1912, the Ministry of education set up the National Museum of history in the Imperial College of yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Guozijian in Beijing. It is the first Museum organized and directly managed by the government in China.

During the period of the Republic of China, because of the political turmoil, the name and affiliation of the National Museum of history changed several times, the funds were seriously short, and the cause suffered setbacks. However, with the unremitting efforts and painstaking management of the museum staff, before October 1949, the National Museum of history held more than ten exhibitions with a wide range of themes according to social needs. In addition to more than ten exhibition rooms open all year round for displaying gold, jade, carved stones, archives of Ming and Qing Dynasties, old cultural relics of Guozijian, soldiers, criminal implements and excavated articles, temporary exhibitions have been held to carry out social education according to social needs, either alone or in cooperation with other academic institutions.
