The museum has now assembled over 20,000 items, mainly in the form of donations from residents in the New Territories.
The museum has paid special attention to the study and collection of relics from the New Territories. In collaboration with the Heung Yee Kuk, the museum launched the New Territories Relics Collection Campaign in 1993, which met with a hearty response and resulted in over 5,000 items being collected.
