The Roemer Museum Hildesheim was founded in 1844 by an association; since then, the lawyer, senator and geologist Hermann Roemer has been considered the museum's founder. The first museum buildings were the converted St. Martin's Church and the orphanage. The merchant, banker and consul Wilhelm Pelizaeus, who lived in Cairo for around forty years, donated his collection of Egyptian finds to his hometown in 1907. The Pelizaeus Museum was opened on July 29, 1911. The background to why the museum is named after Hermann Roemer and Wilhelm Pelizaeus.
