The National Museum of the Philippines is the official repository established in 1901 as a natural history and ethnography museum of the Philippines. It is located next to Rizal Park and near Intramuros in Manila, a component city of Metro Manila. Its main building was designed in 1918 by an American Architect, Daniel Burnham. Today, that building, the former Old Congress Building, holds the arts, natural sciences and other support divisions and the adjacent former Finance building, in the Agrifina Circle of Rizal Park, houses the Anthropology and Archaeology Divisions and is known as the The National Museum of the Filipino People.
