It was originally founded as the Colonial Museum and its aim was to increase knowledge about the colonies.

From October 4^th 2023 the Tropenmuseum is no longer called this way, but it’s called “Wereld Museum”. All four locations will now continue under this new name. The new name Wereldmuseum fits in better with the developments that the museums have undergone in recent years.
