The collection of cultural relics began with simple stone tools used in the initial stage of ancient human beings and lasted for more than one million years until 1840. Cultural relics are not only of great quantity and variety, but also of high quality and wide value.

History of Development

The predecessor of Shaanxi History Museum is Shaanxi History Museum.

In June 1944, the Shaanxi Provincial Government established the Shaanxi Provincial History Museum by utilizing the historical relics collected by Xi'an Stele Forest and Xijing Library, the craft exhibits of Xi'an Folk Religion Museum and various cultural relics collected by the former archaeological association.

On May 20, 1949, Xi'an was liberated. The Shaanxi History Museum was accepted by the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region Government.

In May 1950, it belonged to the management of Northwest China and was renamed the Northwest Historical Relics Exhibition Hall.

In January 1952, it was renamed the Northwest History Museum.

In March 1953, the Northwest History Museum demolished the partition between the stele forest and the Confucius Temple, formally expanding the Confucius Temple into the museum area.

In June 1955, due to the revocation of Northwest China, the Northwest History Museum was under the management of the Shaanxi Provincial Government, and its name was changed to Shaanxi Provincial Museum.

In 1963, the newly built Xi'an Stone Carving Art Room of Shaanxi Museum was officially opened to the outside world. Since then, historical exhibition, sculpture art and stele forest have become the three permanent exhibitions of Shaanxi Museum. With the development of Shaanxi cultural relics and archaeology, by the 1970s, the collection of cultural relics in Shaanxi Museum had reached hundreds of thousands.

When Premier Zhou Enlai visited Shaanxi in 1973, he was impressed by the rich cultural resources in Shaanxi and the small and crude condition of the existing museums. He proposed that a new museum should be built in Shaanxi.

In 1983, the Shaanxi History Museum was built, which is a key construction project of the National Seventh Five-Year Plan. In view of Shaanxi's position in Chinese history, the state and Shaanxi provincial government jointly invested 144 million yuan to build Shaanxi History Museum. The design of Shaanxi History Museum is performed by Ms. Zhang Jinqiu, academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering and famous architect.

On the morning of June 20, 1991, the opening ceremony of Shaanxi History Museum was solemnly held in the front courtyard of the exhibition hall. Shaanxi History Museum, the first national-level large-scale modern museum in China, was officially completed and opened. Its completion marks a new development milestone for the cause of Chinese museums . Basic Exhibition of Shaanxi Local History, Exhibition of Tang Tomb Frescoes and Exhibition of Zhaoling Cultural Relics are also on display.

architectural composition

The appearance of Shaanxi History Museum highlights the style of prosperous Tang Dynasty. The building is composed of a group of buildings with imitative Tang style, such as stele pool, main hall, reservoir area, southeast corner building, southwest corner building, temporary exhibition hall, administrative room and business room.

Shaanxi History Museum is located at Cuihua intersection of Xiaozhai East Road in Xi'an City. Its advantage is that it is neat in place, surrounded by roads, located at the intersection of urban trunk road, close to the city center and convenient in transportation. At the same time, it is only about 1 kilometer away from Qujiang Scenic Spot of Dayan Pagoda. It has a good line of sight with Daxiao Yan Pagoda on urban tourism routes, especially because there is no relocation on this land. Business, nearby main roads have urban pipeline network facilities, easy to start the project. But its disadvantage is that the land is a little limited and there is little room for development. As a large public building, it lacks public square or public green space. According to the above site conditions and the functional requirements of modern museums, the buildings of Shanxi Libo have adopted a relatively centralized and compact layout.

Museum architecture as a whole fully embodies the design idea of Zhang Jinqiu, a master of design, "to reach the international level in technology, and to become a symbol of a long history and splendid culture in architectural art", which intentionally highlights the style of the flourishing Tang Dynasty and reflects the style of the magnificent Tang Dynasty. The layout design draws lessons from the characteristics of Chinese palace buildings such as axis pairing, master-slave orderly, central palace and four corners of lofty buildings. The whole building has distinct primary and secondary features, scattered and gathered, highlighting the simple and dignified style, creating an atmosphere of combining ancient imperial palaces with traditional gardens, reproducing the style of integrating traditional culture with modern science and technology, showing the spatial composition characteristics of traditional Chinese palace buildings such as "Taiji Center, all directions" and "beyond the image" which has been hidden in Chinese space consciousness for thousands of years. From the Oriental Universe Philosophy of "Atlas".

In 2016, Shaanxi Museum of History was selected as "China's 20th Century Architectural Heritage" by the Chinese Society of Cultural Relics and the Chinese Society of Architecture.
