The beginnings of the collection and promotion of archaeological collections date back to the second half of the 19th century and are associated with the scientific societies operating in Toruń at that time, the German Coppernicus-Verein für Wissenschaft und Kunst (Copernicus Society for Science and Arts) and the Städtisches Museum (City Museum) and the Polish Scientific Society in Toruń and its Museum. In the interwar period, after connection the two museum collections, in the City Museum, a separate Department of Prehistory was established, and in 1948, within the structures of the then Museum, the Department of Archaeology was formed.
