The Jilin Provincial Museum was founded in 1951 and formally opened in Jilin City in 1952. In 1954, the provincial government seat was moved to Changchun, and the Jilin Provincial Museum followed it.[2] In 2012, the museum was listed as a national first-grade museum.[3] After nine years of construction,[4] the museum moved to its present location on Yongshun Road (Chinese: 永顺路; pinyin: Yǒngshùn lù), Nanguan District, in 2016.[2]
Collection
Artefacts from the Goguryeo and Balhae kingdoms, as well as the Khitan Liao and Jurchen dynasties, make up a large proportion of the museum's collection. In addition, the museum has a large number of calligraphic art pieces from various historical periods, including the modern era, and cultural relics from the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army.[2]
There are a number of permanent, temporary,[6] and digital[7] exhibitions at the museum.
A collaborative exhibition between Jilin Provincial Museum and the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army Memorial Hall[8] called 'Souls of the Black Earth Army: Military History of the North-east Anti-Japanese United Army'[9] was awarded a National Museums' 10 Great Exhibitions excellence award (2012–2013).[10] The exhibition was designed to assist in developing a patriotic education.[11]
