Shanghai Film Museum

Shanghai Film Museum
  The Shanghai Film Museum is situated on floors 1 to 4 of the Shanghai Film Group Building at No. 595 Caoxi North Road, Xuhui District, with a total area of 15,000 square meters. It is an industry museum that integrates exhibitions and events, visits and experiences, and encompasses functions such as cultural relic collection, academic research, social education, and display. The museum is divided into four major thematic exhibition areas, Studio 5, and one art cinema. It showcases the charm of a century of Shanghai cinema, vividly presenting the stories of filmmakers, films, and what lies behind them. It serves as an artistic sanctuary that meets the public's cinematic cultural needs, one of the most important exhibition windows for Shanghai and even Chinese cinema, and is set to become a new cultural landmark of Shanghai.

  On the site of Shanghai Film Studio's 595 construction project, the Shanghai Film Group Building was erected as a testament to Shanghai cinema. The Shanghai Film Museum was also built here. With an investment of 900 million yuan and a total construction area exceeding 100,000 square meters, it is the largest film museum in China. It began trial operation in May 2013 and officially opened during the Shanghai International Film Festival in mid-June. The former site was the compound of the Shanghai Film Studio itself, which is a historical relic. The yellow building on the left originally belonged to the Holy Vestment Convent, a Catholic nunnery and monastery, built in 1874. In September 1933, it was purchased by Lianhua Film Company and rebuilt as Studio 3. Its address at the time was No. 3 Sanjiao Street. After the war, Kunlun Film Company and, in 1957, Haiyan Film Studio were both based here.
