There is a permanent exposition Nature and history of the district of Spišská Nová Ves in the building of the Spiš Museum. The building of the Spiš Museum is, from the historical point of view, one of the most precious buildings that can be found in the town of Spišská Nová Ves. Its foundations were probably laid in the 15th century. Later on it housed the town hall, and since 1774 it has been the seat of the newly-established province of 16 towns of the Spiš region - the Province House. Nowadays the building, with its interesting facade and cartouches, is one of the town's dominant features. Since 1951 it has also been used as a museum.
The museum also contains several external exhibitions
