In 1895 the Board of Trustees of the Industrial Museum of North Bohemia chose the project of the Viennese architect Friedrich Ohmann for the construction of a new building. The construction took place between 1897-1898 and it was carried out by the Liberec company of Gustav and Ferdinand Miksch based on the realisation plans drawn up by the Berlin studio Griesbach & Dinklage. http://www.visitliberec.eu/en/kultura-a-zabava/muzea-a-galerie/?view=min&cat=kultura_a_zabava&detail=1206
