  The museum was established in 2003[citation needed] by the merging of the two separate museums that had occupied the same building since 1959: the Museum of the Chinese Revolution in the northern wing (originating in the Office of the National Museum of the Revolution founded in 1950 to preserve the legacy of the 1949 revolution) and the National Museum of Chinese History in the southern wing (with origins in both the Beijing National History Museum, founded in 1949, and the Preliminary Office of the National History Museum, founded in 1912, tasked to safeguard China's larger historical legacy). The building was completed in 1959 as one of the Ten Great Buildings celebrating the ten-year anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. It complements the opposing Great Hall of the People that was built at the same time. The structure sits on 6.5 hectares (16 acres) and has a frontal length of 313 metres (1,027 ft), a height of four stories totaling 40 metres (130 ft), and a width of 149 metres (489 ft). The front displays ten square pillars at its center.

  Free, large museum. Avoid going on weekends and holidays to avoid the crowds. Opens at 9am closed on Mondays. Some exhibits offer English translations while others do not. A lot of various art exhibits with historical context.

  Worth the waiting to get through security. As the museum is in same area as Tiennamen Square and The Forbidden Palace, it may be worth going on week days rather than the weekend. A huge place with so much history to explore. Took me about 5 hours to slowly and carefully explore level 1 and level 2. Signage was mostly in both Chinese and English. They had run out of museum maps and audio tours when I arrived so had to make do with display signage. Not many places to sit while working through the displays. Being a little older I did find that a real issue. Unfortunately I didn't get to level 3. Well worth the effort to have a good long look 😊

  Architektur ist schon recht imposant. Das Gebäude ist riesig. Leider gibt es zu viel kommunistische Propaganda in fast allen Ausstellungen.
