Уманський краєзнавчий музей розташований у будівлі колишньої приватної лікарні (1902 рік).

Історія заснування музею починається з 1906 року, коли з ініціативи вчителя та краєзнавця Данила Щербаківського було створено Товариство любителів старовини. Офіційне відкриття Історичного музею Уманщини відбулося у 1918 році.

Експонати трьох відділів розповідають про виникнення життя на Землі, геологічну структуру, корисні копалини, водну систему, ґрунти, клімат, рослинний та тваринний світ. До уваги відвідувачів представлені зразки гранітів, каолінів, бурого вугілля; є опудала тварин та птахів, занесених до "Червоної книги України".

В історичному відділі представлений макет Уманської фортеці, зразки старовинної зброї та обладунків.
