Jeggare Museum

From PathfinderWiki

In the city of Korvosa, in the region of Varisia, the Jeggare Museum is only rivalled by the Museum of Ages in Magnimar.1

History

Montlarion Jeggare sponsored the Jeggare Museum when he moved the majority of the collection he had amassed during his travels as an explorer from the House Jeggare home to a new building in the middle of Korvosa in the Heights District. This move was completed in 4490 AR. The collection was opened to little applause, but soon became the city's most distinguished institution of history. During this transition, and all of the time since, a member of the Jeggare family has overseen the collection.1

Exhibits

Holding not on display or in exhibits are stored in the various rooms on the Jeggare estate.2

Notable items

Expeditions

To gather artifacts, a good museum must fund expeditions, and the Jeggare is no exception. They have sponsored trips to places all over Varisia, such as the Obelisk Forest of Mundatei and Spindlehorn.1
