Currently, there are one provincial museum, 8 museums, traditional houses, and traditional rooms at the district level, 17 traditional rooms at the communal level or of different sectors, and one private museum in Thanh Hóa Province.
Museums are place to keep and display collections of objects, antiques, and documents that reflect typical historical and cultural events of localities, ethnic groups, or countries in the world.
Through a system of documents and typical objects, the exhibitions at the Thanh Hóa Provincial Museum introduces the country’s historical process in a condensed but lively and remarkable way, which helps visitors to understand about the history directly, specifically, and effectively.
Bronze drums were creative, unique works. They were symbol of Vietnamese civilization in the ancient time. In 1902, in the book “Alte metalltramels aus Sudost Asien”, Austrian scholar F. Heger classified four type of bronze drums from his research about 165 bronze drums of many famous museums in the world. These are: Heger I, Heger II, Heger III, Heger IV types. In addition, there are three intermediary types: Heger I-II, Heger I-IV, Heger II-IV. Until now, most of Vietnamese and foreign scholars accepted this classification of bronze drums.
In order to facilitate organizations and individuals who have not had opportunity to directly visit the Museum, for many years, the Thanh Hóa Provincial Museum has focused on the organization of traveling exhibitions in parallel with its permanent exhibitions.
