[1] Opened on March 17, 1996,[2] the museum is formerly housed in the Provincial Capitol, which was reverted for government use 2003.

As a courtesy payment, Negros Cultural Foundation, the management running the Negros Museum, currently pays the Provincial Government a rent of ₱1 only, for minimum compliance under law.

The museum is the first in its kind to not house precious archaeological artifacts, but rather was designed to display Negrense lifestyle and society, which includes old furnishings and loaned items from ancestral houses.
