Very complete here.
The Natural History Museum was originally part of the Bristish Museum, known as the British Museum (Natural History). However, because it requires more space while the place at the British Museum is limited, this museum was decided to break away in 1856.
The construction of the new Natural History Museum (NHM) began in 1873 and was completed in 1873. Although the transfer of collections from the old museum was only completed in 1883, the Natural History Museum had begun to be opened to the public from 1881.
Although it has been separated from the British Museum since then, legal separation into an independent museum only took place in 1963, and its name changed officially to the new Natural History Museum in 1992. (WS.IN/ENG/*)
