This paper offers a historical study of collecting in Kremnica before the founding of the Town Museum. Private collecting activities, which go back as far as the 16th century, served both to promote the collector and to preserve personal or family memorabilia. This was also true of the first public collections created by the municipal government, schools and various associations and churches. These private and public initiatives combined with the efforts of the local scholars result in the founding of the first professionally-run museum in 1890.
