The Revolution Museum was established in August 1959. Originally, this museum consists of two floors and is a used building which was the former headquarters of the Trade Department. After being undergone for some renovations and redesign, the Revolution Museum now includes about 30 showrooms, where display more than 40,000 historical exhibits. The very first room is officially used to introduce about Vietnam and the Vietnamese.
The following room chains present exhibits which are divided into three main historical phases:
* National liberation movements of the Vietnamese against French troops before the Vietnamese Communist Party was established (1858-1930)
* National independent struggle of the Vietnamese under the leadership of the Communist Party (1930-1975)
* Construction and defense of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (1976-1994) {itpsharepoint}
