Groninger Museum

The Groninger Museum is a museum inside the town of Groningen and one of the pinnacle points of interest inside the province with a number of visitors of round 200,000 consistent with year. The first basis of the museum become the Museum of Germanic Antiquities, which become based in 1847 via Hendrikus Octavius ??Feith in the University Library of Groningen.

At that point, there have been already several museums of the college in Groningen, inclusive of the Museum of Natural History and the 'Collection for Mineralogy, Geology, Zoology and Zoology', which can be now part of the University Museum. After Feith's death in 1849 the Museum of Germanic Antiquities led a dormant existence till in 1874 the 'Provincial Cabinet of Antiquities' was based by way of his son Hendrik Octavius ??Feith, who merged his father's collection with oddities shelves of the city and province of Groningen. The collections were first housed in a room of the Provinciehuis, but while it became too small, son Johan Adriaan Feith found a building on Zuidersingelstraat now Ubbo Emmiusstraat for the collections.
