This museum, a branch of the Slovak National Museum, contains a collection of treasures from Slovakia's distant past and various archaeological finds from the early Stone Age up to the 13th century.
The museum, operating all over Slovakia, houses a collection fund (over 150,000 objects) that extends from pre-history to the late Middle Ages.
The fund was established as a result of research by the museum staff, especially their own archaeological research, as well as donations and purchases. A diverse range of objects from the territory of Slovakia is supplemented by Egyptian, Greek and Roman ones.
The museum is located at the foot of the Bratislava Castle in the Renaissance building of Kamper Mansion dating from the 16th century.
