Lintao County Museum

　　The Lintao County Museum was established in 1957. Its predecessor was the Civilian Education Hall, founded in 1941, which was renamed the People's Cultural Education Hall in 1949 and took on the responsibility of managing cultural relics. In 1957, the Lintao County Museum was established to specialize in the management of cultural relics, and was located in Dongyanshi Temple on Mount Yuelu. In 1958, the county museum merged with the county cultural center and the county library and was collectively referred to as the Lintao County Cultural Center. In 1981, the county museum was re-established under the jurisdiction of the county culture bureau, and its location remained in Dongyanshi Temple.

　　The museum houses a collection of 7,269 cultural relics, including 20 pieces of precious items such as a Yuan Dynasty blue-and-white 'Yuhuchun' vase, a Yuan Dynasty blue-and-white 'Luanfengwen' wine vessel, a Han Dynasty crossbow mechanism, a Majiayao culture painted pottery jar with four large ring patterns, a Jin Dynasty seal of Didao County, Song Dynasty portrait bricks, as well as pottery and painted pottery from the Majiayao, Siwa, Xindian, and Qijia cultures.

　　There is one exhibition hall in the museum, covering an area of about 100 square meters. It is a brick-and-wood structure in antique style built in the late Qing and early Republican period and relocated in 1988; a cultural relics storage room and four offices were built in 1990, with a total construction area of approximately 300 square meters.

　　The museum’s permanent exhibition is the Lintao County Historical Relics Exhibition, displaying fossils, stone tools, bone tools, painted pottery from the Neolithic Age Majiayao type, Banshan type, Machang type, Qijia culture, Xindian culture, and Siwa culture, as well as relics from the Warring States, Qin, and Han periods, including bronze and ironware, porcelain, and portrait bricks.
