The permanent collections portray more than 10.000 years of history, providing insights into the world of the past and foreign cultures worldwide. The various temporary exhibitions focus upon a number of different periods and themes. Exhibitions on a smaller scale take place throughout the year in the museum's foyer and exhibition halls.

The department conserves the collection of the National Museum. It also works for other institutions and individuals on a non profit basis, covering about half of its expenses in this way.
