It is called "Hunan Library and Education Museum". It mainly displays human and animal models. About a year after its opening, the Museum of Education was partially revoked.
On June 24, 1924, the Museum of Hunan Provincial Education Council opened.
In 1927, it was officially named Hunan Provincial Museum.
It was destroyed by war in 1930 and has not been restored since.
In March 1951, Hunan Museum Preparatory Office was founded in Baiqin Garden in Liufangling, Changsha.
In 1956, the martyr park in Northwest Changsha was built and opened. Aiming at the construction of "Geographical Museum", collecting and displaying cultural relics and standards reflecting Hunan's history, culture, folklore, art and natural resources were carried out. Six major exhibitions were held, including "Hunan Mineral Resources", "Hunan Agricultural Resources", "Hunan Handicrafts" and "Hunan Chu Cultural Relics". Among them, Chu relics collection and Hunan modern celebrity collection are one of the major archaeological discoveries in China and even the world in the 20th century.
From 1972 to 1974, the excavation of Mawangdui Han Tomb, one of the most important archaeological discoveries in China and even in the world in the twentieth century, was of great significance to the development of Hunan Museum. The discovery and unearthing of thousands of exquisite cultural relics and well-preserved female corpses of the Han Dynasty has made the Hunan Museum the focus of world attention and received the government's attention and social support.
In 1973, the Hunan Museum built a new warehouse with a building area of 3510 square meters (later transformed into a place for protection and display), which played a key role in protecting and displaying the cultural relics unearthed from Mawangdui Han Tomb for nearly 30 years.
