During the opening ceremony speech on 28 April 2001, President Chen Shui-bian emphasized the effort by the central government to preserve Hakka culture and give it the recognition it deserves.

Architecture

The museum design was inspired by simplicity and minimalism. Combining the architecture of tobacco (curing) shed and traditional trilateral courtyard house, it embraces innovation and modernity.[3]

Exhibitions

The museum displays Hakka and Meinong culture and history, emphasising the relationship between the people and their environment.[4]
