Shanghai History Museum, History museum in Pudong district, Shanghai, China
The Shanghai History Museum displays more than 30,000 historical items across multiple exhibition halls in a neo-classical building from 1934.
The museum first opened in 1984 at the Shanghai Agriculture Exhibition, later moving to its current location in the former Shanghai Race Club building.
The collection includes Ming Dynasty embroidery, ancient bronze artifacts, and traditional items that represent Shanghai's transformation from a fishing village.
Located at 1 Century Avenue, the museum provides wheelchair access and operates daily with exhibitions spread across several floors of the building.
The museum houses boundary markers from the French Concession and bronze lions that previously guarded the HSBC building on the Shanghai Bund.
