Roemer- und Pelizaeus-Museum Hildesheim

Mostly dedicated to ancient Egyptian and ancient Peruvian art, the museum also includes the second largest collection of Chinese porcelain in Europe.

Furthermore, the museum owns collections of natural history, ethnology, applied arts, drawings and prints, local history and arts, as well as archeology.

The current museum is the result of the union of the Roemer Museum, founded in 1844 (and named after one of the founders, Hermann Roemer), and the Pelizaeus Museum, established in 1911, that had housed the private collection of Egyptian antiques of Wilhelm Pelizaeus.
