Qian Xuesen Library & Museum

Qian Xuesen Library & Museum, Space technology museum and scientific library at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China.

The Qian Xuesen Library & Museum stands at 1800 Huashan Road on Shanghai Jiao Tong University's Xuhui campus. The building covers 7,960 square metres on a site of 8,960 square metres, with three floors above ground and one below. Its more than 3,000 square metres of exhibition space is divided into four halls: two on the first floor and two on the second, devoted in turn to the founder of China's space programme, the pioneer of science and technology frontiers, the people's scientist, and the strategic scientist's path to success.

Shanghai Jiao Tong University proposed the library in November 2002, and the central government treated it as a national project coordinated by the Propaganda Department. The foundation stone was laid on 6 June 2010, and the building opened in December 2011 for the centenary of Qian Xuesen's birth. In May 2024 it was rated a first-class national museum.

The four exhibition halls are arranged in sequence: the first two on the ground floor cover Qian as founder of China's space programme and as a pioneer of science and technology frontiers, while the upper floor presents him as a people's scientist and as a strategic scientist. The displays draw on manuscripts, photographs and personal objects.

The location sits at 1800 Huashan Road in Xuhui District and opens from Tuesday through Sunday for visitors. It is best to arrive early in the day, especially on weekends, when visitor numbers tend to be higher.

In May 2024, it became the first and only scientist-dedicated museum among China's 326 first-class national museums. This recognition reflects the importance placed on the pioneer's life and legacy within the nation's cultural landscape.
