Dalian's city museum stands beside Xinghai Square and opened in 2002. Its permanent exhibition, 'Modern Dalian', covers the city's history from 1840 to 1949 in seven sections, from naval defence and the 1894–95 war through Russian and Japanese rule to the establishment of people's government in 1949. Other halls hold changing exhibitions of art and antiquities borrowed from Chinese and foreign museums.
