The Hunting Museum of Finland is the leading information center and service institution on its field in Finland. The mission of the museum is to collect, to study, to preserve, and to display Finnish hunting culture, past and present. The museum operations include a library and an archive serving researchers and public. Every year, the museum offers multiple exhibitions and events for local and national audiences.

The Hunting Museum of Finland was founded by the Finnish Hunters' Association in 1930; however, the museum was not opened until 1972 in Porvoo. In the spring of 1990, the museum moved into a new building built by the city of Riihimäki. The Hunting Museum of Finland Association is responsible for the activities of the museum. Individual members, in addition to national hunting organizations, make up the membership of the association. The activities of the museum are financed primarily by fees collected from game licenses and the funding from Ministry of Education and Culture.
