| 释义 |
A local museum or local history museum is a museum that covers local history. Its collection normally includes objects with a local connection of some sort. Such museums are often small in nature and have a low budget for their running costs. Entry costs are normally low as well.[1] A local museum covering a city is sometimes called a city museum and a local museum covering a town is sometimes called a town museum. HistoryThe first suggestion of establishing local museums in Britain was made by William Sharp in the nineteenth century.[2] On the strength of this suggestion he was admitted to the Royal Society. Regional variationsIn Germany, a specific type of local museum is a Heimatmuseum, a museum dedicated to the unique German concept of heimat, a form of local cultural identity. See also
