Before the inauguration and welcoming of guests, it is expected that from January 16-18, domestic and international delegates participating in the Danang Friendship and Cooperation Cities Forum 2025 - Meet Danang 2025 will be the first guests to visit the modern exhibition spaces of the Danang Museum.

The project to renovate and upgrade blocks 42-44 Bach Dang and 31 Tran Phu to build the Da Nang Museum started in mid-2021, aiming to create infrastructure to receive and display artifacts of the Da Nang Museum. The project was approved by the People's Committee of Da Nang City with a total investment of 504.9 billion VND.

The new Danang Museum is invested and built on a total area of 8,686m², including a newly built museum block (1 basement, 3 upper floors), a synchronous technical infrastructure system, and green landscape.

After completing the project, Da Nang Museum will expand its exhibition scale, ensuring the facilities are a place to collect, preserve and promote the cultural and historical values of the city and the Central Highlands region. From there, it will contribute to education and serve the needs of learning, research, sightseeing, learning and enjoying culture of the majority of people as well as tourists.

The modern exhibition space of Da Nang Museum consists of 4 main exhibition areas including Permanent Exhibition; History of Da Nang's nature and people; History of Da Nang's urban development and Culture.

At this point, the project is gradually being completed, the modern exhibition spaces of Da Nang Museum are ready to welcome people and tourists to visit on the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of Da Nang City Liberation (March 29, 1975 - March 20, 2025). After moving all artifacts to the new facility, Da Nang will implement phase 2, renovating the special national relic of Dien Hai Citadel.

Da Nang's history is marked by the Governor's Palace, also known as Da Nang City Hall (No. 42 Bach Dang, Hai Chau District, Da Nang City), built during the French colonial period, which is now over 120 years old. The City Hall is also a witness to the heroic historical moments of the army and people of Da Nang with the event at noon on March 29, 1975, the flag of the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam flew on the roof of the City Hall, marking the victory of the army and people of Da Nang in the resistance war against the US to save the country. During the construction and development period, this building continued to be used as the headquarters of the People's Committee of Quang Nam - Da Nang province. In 1994, this building was renovated and upgraded but still retained the aesthetic values of French architecture. At the time of administrative division in 1997, this building was the headquarters of the People's Committee of Da Nang city. In June 2014, the administrative apparatus of Da Nang city moved to the City Administration Center, the building became the headquarters of the City People's Council. Up to now, the Da Nang City People's Council has moved to the new headquarters, where there is still a large hall where the annual City People's Council meeting takes place.
