      History
      Established in 1913.

      On November 6, 1913, Exposition Park and the new museum -- called then the Los Angeles County Museum of History, Science, and Art at the time -- opened formally to the public. A two-week civic celebration ensued, dovetailing with the opening of the Owens River Aqueduct. Today, The NHM has amassed one of the world's most extensive and valuable collections of natural and cultural history -- more than 35 million objects, some as old as 4.5 billion years. Its curatorial staff not only cares for those collections, but uses them for groundbreaking scientific and historic research. The Museum also curates new, immersive exhibitions that give visitors the opportunity to explore the "big picture" of our planet -- specimens and objects, the stories behind them, and the increasing interrelatedness of the natural and cultural worlds.
