Museums, as public service facilities in cities, play an important role in cultural inheritance and dissemination, and are also important channels for cultural publicity. Tianjin is one of the im-portant cities in modern China, with a unique cultural heritage. The Tianjin Museum receives a large number of domestic and foreign tourists every year, becoming an important window for showcasing and promoting Tianjin’s history and culture. In order to provide foreign tourists with a more intuitive understanding of Tianjin culture, the Tianjin Museum has equipped most of its cul-tural relics and exhibition guides with bilingual Chinese and English texts. This article takes the translation of Tianjin Museum texts as an example to analyze the cultural dissemination function in museum text translation, aiming to provide reference for more museum text translations, in order to promote Tianjin culture and tell the story of Tianjin well.
