Smithsonian Institution 



The Smithsonian Institution is the world's largest museum 

 and research complex, with 16 museums, the National Zoo, 

 and a number of research facilities around the world. It was 

 created by an act of Congress in 1846 in accordance with 

 the terms of the will of James Smithson of England, who 

 in 1826 bequeathed his property to the United States of 

 America "to found at Washington, under the name of the 

 Smithsonian Institution, an establishment for the increase 

 and diffusion of knowledge among men." After receiving the 

 property and accepting the trust, Congress vested responsi- 

 bility for administering the trust in the Smithsonian Board 

 of Regents.
