Ackland Art Museum

The Ackland Art Museum at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill was begun with his collection.

UNC's Morehead Planetarium and Science Center, as well as the Ackland Art Museum are also located in this area.

The museum was built instead of what would have been the Ackland Art Museum at Rollins; millionaire and amateur art collector William Hayes Ackland (1855-1940) wanted to leave his fortune to a Southern university for an art museum and narrowed his choices to Duke University, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and Rollins, in that order.

A certain "Still Life with Hunting Trophies" hangs in the Ackland Art Museum, Chapel Hill, NC, and a large "Peacock with Hunting Trophies" hangs in the Museu Calouste Gulbenkian.
