Fig.: Since 2011,
the Joanneumâs main building
(now the Natural History
Museum and CoSA) and the
Styrian State Library (both on
the left) have been connected
underground to the ânewâ
Joanneum building from 1895
(now the Neue Galerie,
on the right) via a visitor
centre in the first basement
floor of the newly designed
Joanneum district.

But the enlargement was not yet complete. In 2014, the state memorials, the
Rosegger museum at Krieglach and the Rosegger birthplace on the Alpl were
transferred from the cultural department to the administration of the Uni-
versalmuseum Joanneum. In 2017 the Palais Herberstein/Sackstrasse 16 was
repositioned as the History Museum in which the cultural-historical collection
is represented with a show depot. A separate exhibition area is dedicated to
the multimedia collections, and temporary exhibitions on regional historical
themes are shown.
Since 2019, the Austrian Open Air Museum in StĂŒbing, north of Graz, has
been the latest addition to the Universalmuseum Joanneum. And in the Natu-
ral History Museum, the CoSA (Center of Science Activities) will also be set up
in 2019 in cooperation with the Graz Childrenâs Museum âFrida & Fredâ, in order
to provide young people aged ten and over with a playful approach to natural
science and technology, thus bringing them back very close to the original
founding idea of Archduke Johann.
