While the University was occupied and used as a civilian internment camp for Allied nationals by the Japanese military during World War II, the UST Museum was closed. Only a handful of internees were allowed to work with the collection, cataloguing shells, coins and rare books.

Conservation Laboratory

Conservation tasks are carried out by the Museum in cooperation with the UST Center for Conservation of Cultural Property and Environment in the Tropics (CCCPET) in its own laboratory. Paintings, sculptures and artifacts that need restorations and cleaning, are done here. One successful project is the 1911 commemorative painting of the “Foundation of the UST by Archbishop Miguel de Benavides” that was unveiled last January 25, 2010 at the UST Main Building lobby.

SUPPORT THE MUSEUM

The preservation of the UST Museum’s collections from the ravages of time can only be made possible with the help of our generous friends and benefactors who share our vision and concern for our national treasures.
