The Science Museum’s collection dates back to the 1851 Great Exhibition in Hyde Park. The collection was divided amongst different science collections such as the Museum of Patents, founded 1858, and the Patent Office Museum of 1863. The collections were part of the South Kensington Museum but in 1885 these science collections separated. The Art Collections of the South Kensington Museum also separated and became the Victoria and Albert Museum.
In 1909, the Science Museum was officially established and gradually opened to the public between 1919 and 1928.
