History
In 1932, the Ministry of Education opened the Chang Pim Sungwej Printing School, the very first printing school in Thailand. Phra Saroj Rattananimman, an architect, designed this place in Bauhaus style. The floor was made of wood. In addition, a workshop for the Wat Sungwej Printing School was built near the Banglsmphu canal. All the construction was overseen by Luang Visarn Silapaklum. In 1973, the Kuruspha Printing House on Phra Sumane Road was closed and used as an inventory house of Kuruspha until the end of the lease, so in 1975 the property belonged to the Treasury Department. Afterward, the Treasury Department renovated this place to be a museum which showcases the history and culture community of Banglumphu.
