Chicago’s amazing Museum Campus houses three of the city’s leading institutions all in one place. Spend a day exploring the underwater world of aquatic animals at the Shedd Aquarium, a dramatic history of the natural world at The Field Museum, and the far-out galaxies of space at the Adler Planetarium. These three museums are fascinating, but learning the history behind the people and the money that made them happen is pretty fancinating too. Here are some of the things they never tell you!
In order to house the exhibits future generations, Edward Ayer convinced the merchant Marshall Field to fund the establishment of a museum. In 1905, the museum's name was changed from Columbian Museum of Chicago to Field Museum of Natural History to honor its first major benefactor, Marshall Field.
Plan Your Visit to The Field Museum
In 1915 the museum was moved to it's current location at Museum campus---prior to the move it occupied the space where the Museum of Science and Industry currently is---the ONLY building still standing from the World Fair. Construction of the new museum took almost six years to complete and cost approximately $7,000,000. (today $172,566,800)---the foundation alone took one year and extends down 95ft in some places. When it was first constructed, the building was made of 350,000 cubic feet of white Georgia marble and covered 20 acres of floor space. On May 2, 1921, the Field Museum was reopened to the public. Since that time, many additions have been made. Currently the Museum’s exhibition space occupies over 480,000 square feet. Stanley Field Hall itself accounts for a half an acre of floor space and is comprised of 300 million year old fossilized limestone. Located at each corner of Stanley Field Hall, the four muses depict the purposes for which The Field Museum was founded--knowledge, records, science and research.
The Field Museum Then and Now....
Originally the Columbian Museum of Chicago. Its collections originated from the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, also known as the Chicago World Fair which celebrated the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the New World.
