History
In 1908, in a former brewery building, designed by architect Paul Pitt a room was opened for various exhibitions. In 1918, the building passed into urban ownership. From 1921 to 1924 the museum hosted art exhibitions. Since 1925, the Museum of Natural History began to exhibit its materials in the building. In 1928 the museum was reconstructed, as a result of which the area of the premises was significantly increased.
