A museum (/mjuːˈziːəm/ mew-ZEE-əm; plural museums or, rarely, musea) is an institution that cares for (conserves) a collection of artifacts and other objects of artistic, cultural, historical, or scientific importance. Many public museums make these items available for public viewing through exhibitsthat may be permanent or temporary.[1] The largest museums are located in major cities throughout the world, while thousands of local museums exist in smaller cities, towns and rural areas. Museums have varying aims, ranging from serving researchers and specialists to serving the general public. The goal of serving researchers is increasingly shifting to serving the general public. There are many types of museums, including art museums, natural history museums, science museums, war museums, and children's museums. Amongst the world's largest and most visited museums are the Louvre in Paris, the National Museum of China in Beijing, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C., the British Museum and National Gallery in London, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and Vatican Museums in Vatican City. According to The World Museum Community, there are more than 55,000 museums in 202 countries.[2] EtymologyEdit  The State Historical Museum in Moscow. The English "museum" comes from the Latinword, and is pluralized as "museums" (or rarely, "musea"). It is originally from the Ancient Greek Μουσεῖον (Mouseion), which denotes a place or temple dedicated to the Muses (the patron divinities in Greek mythology of the arts), and hence a building set apart for study and the arts,[3] especially the Musaeum (institute) for philosophy and research at Alexandria by Ptolemy I Soterabout 280 BC.[4]

Kanpur Sangrahalaya / Kanpur Museum is the official museum in Kanpur, the industrial hub of Uttar Pradesh, India. It was built by the British as King Edward Memorial Hall in honour of Edward VII. Kanpur Mueseum or Kanpur Sangrahalaya is the official state museum in Kanpur, the industrial hub of Uttar Pradesh. It was built by the British as King Edward Memorial Hall in honour of Edward VII. It is a storehouse of artifacts and exhibits that tell the story of the events and people who have influenced the making of the city, and reveals many interesting details about the historical past of the city. The Kanpur museum is located in the central area of Kanpur District and is close to Kanpur Central railway station, LIC Building and Nana Rao Park. Kanpur was known as the Manchester of Asia, in the British colonial period. Being the biggest among the Cities in Uttar Pradesh, Kanpur holds a significant position in the political, religious, social, and cultural history of India. The funds for the King Edward Memorial Hall were collected from European traders settled in Kanpur and Indian merchants. When World War I broke out, construction on the hall was interrupted and the hall was used to house wounded British soldiers. After the war, KEM Hall was an orthopedic rehabilitation hospital and became Harcourt Butler Technological Institute in 1920. Construction of the hall was completed after WWI in 1918. It was used by European settlers for cultural activities, and occasionally it was rented to rich Indian merchants for marriage ceremonies. After independence in 1947, KEM Hall was renamed as Gandhi Bhawan. Gandhi Bhawan now houses a municipal library and the Kanpur Sangrahalaya Museum. The museum was established in 1999, and is located in Phool Bagh Ground at the intersection of Mall Road and the Kanpur-Lucknow Road. The museum's collection includes an old colonial period artillery gun. It has a rare collection of ancient and historical artifacts - Artifacts are stored very carefully are the major source of historical information.
