The museum has more than 96 000 collection items (paintings, sculptures, drawings, graphic art, photographs, applied art and architectural designs) which makes it the third biggest institution of its kind in the Czech Republic. In addition, however, the museum manages another approximately 105.000 collection items of the Olomouc Archbishopric.
