=========================================================
Muzeum v Šumperku bylo založeno jako soukromé v roce 1896 a po vzniku muzejního spolku po roce 19l0 bylo chápáno jako nemecké mestské muzeum. První výstavní prostory melo v bývalém dominikánském kláštere, po roce 1921 pak presídlilo do tzv. Geschaderova domu v Kladské ulici. V roce 1945 bylo nemecké muzeum predáno do ceské správy a na pocátku 50. let mu byly prideleny nové prostory v Pavlínine dvore.
