The Shihsanhang Museum of Archaeology was established in conjunction with the rescue excavation undertaken at the Shihsanhang Archaeological Site in 1990. At the time, the government had been planning to build a sewage treatment plant on top of the site. Archaeologists vigorously called for rescue of the site and received strong backing from the public. A portion of the site was preserved and designated a National Historic Site – Class Two. It was formally approved as a protected national-grade archaeological site by the Executive Yuan in 1992. The Shihsanhang Museum of Archaeology was established by the Taipei County Government, the responsible authority at the time, to preserve the cultural relics unearthed at the Shihsanhang site. The museum opened for operation on April 24, 2003.
