==Municipal museum==
Starting as a private museum the ‘Museum for Education’ was taken over by the municipality of The Hague in 1920.  In 1933, biologist [[Niko Tinbergen]], provided the museum with a collection of objects from the [[Inuit]] in [[Greenland]]. The museum moved several times, until the municipality had its present building built in 1985, by the design by architect [[WG Quist]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=www.architectuur.org |title=Museon en Omniversum, Den Haag, W.

In 1997 the museum was set up as a private body, although its principal funder remains the council of Den Haag.<ref>''Beleidsplan 2021-2024'', https://www.museon-omniversum.nl/files/paginas/2022/03/beleidsplan-2021-2024.pdf.
