Shenyang Palace Museum

The Shenyang Palace Museum, originally a royal palace built and used in the early Qing Dynasty, was built in 1625 (five years from tomorrow, ten years after the fate of the golden emperor). The Shenyang Palace Museum covers an area of more than 60,000 square meters. It has 114 ancient buildings and more than 500 rooms. So far, it is well preserved. The Shenyang Palace Museum, built on the palace sites, is a famous museum of ancient palace art. Its collection contains rich palace art. In 1961, the State Council designated the Shenyang Palace Museum as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units. On July 1, 2004, the 28th World Heritage Committee approved the Shenyang Palace Museum as an extension project of the Ming and Qing Dynasties Palace Cultural Heritage to be included in the World Cultural Heritage List. Shenyang Palace Museum is unique in the history of Chinese palace architecture in terms of its high-rise building and "low palace".

In 2017, it was promoted to the third batch of state-level museums.

Development history

Ten years after the fate of the emperor Jin Dynasty (five years from tomorrow, 1625), Nurhachi decided that Shenyang was the capital city for strategic considerations. In the center of the old city of Shenyang, he built the Great Government Hall and the Ten Kings Pavilion, which were the beginning of the construction of the Forbidden City of Shenyang. In 1644, the Qing Dynasty moved its capital to Beijing. This former Imperial Palace became the accompanying capital palace. In the early years of Shunzhi, Dingshengjing was the "accompanying capital" of the country. Later, five ministries of Shengjing households, rituals, soldiers, punishment, industry and general Fengtian Prefecture and Chengde County were successively set up in the city to manage the relevant affairs in this area. Shengjing Palace, as a sacred site of the founding of the Qing Dynasty, is under special protection. The daily management, guard and repair of the Palace are under the responsibility of Shengjing Interior Office and Shengjing Ministry of Industry. From the 10th year of Kangxi (1671) to the 9th year of Daoguang (1829), Kangxi, Qianlong, Jiaqing and Daoguang made ten East Tours. During the Qianlong period, for the emperor of Qing Dynasty to patrol the East and store the ancestors and the things in the palace, and to rebuild, rebuild and expand, the palace and the palace coexisted as an accumulative palace building group.

After the Daoguang Dynasty, the Shenyang Palace Museum was covered with charcoal. "At first, the Tsarist overlord palace swept ahead, and after the Japanese peeped into the secrets of the gold chamber, the British chiefs sought to enter the palace to search for treasures. The national treasure is also something seized by imperialist powers. Would you rather not be sad? In the third year of Xuantong, Xiliang, the governor of the three eastern provinces, according to Jinliang's suggestion, "Please build a museum in Shengjing Danei and in the front of Wensuo Pavilion". Because of the uprising of 1911, this matter can not be solved. After 1911, under the leadership of Beiyang, the treasures stored in Shengjing Treasury were transported to Beijing Normal University. After General Feng Yuxiang's "Beijing coup", the Shengjing Palace was also taken over by the Fengtian Provincial Government.

In 1926, people of insight in Northeast China conformed to the trend of world culture and promoted the Fengtian Provincial Council to set up three eastern provincial museums in the Palace Museum, which became one of the earliest museums recommended by China itself. After the September 18th Incident in 1931, the Museum of the Eastern Three Provinces was transformed into the Fengtian Palace Museum. After its restoration in 1945, the National Shenyang Museum was re-established. In 1949, it was transformed into the exhibition house of Shenyang Palace Museum, which belongs to the Ministry of Culture of the Northeast Government. In 1954, the state decided to set up a museum of the historical and artistic nature of the Qing Dynasty in Shenyang Palace Museum. In 1986, it was renamed as the Shenyang Palace Museum.

On May 18, 2017, the third batch of state-level museums were promoted.
