Melbourne Museum
Due to current COVID-19 restrictions, Melbourne Museum is temporarily closed until restrictions are lifted.
From history and culture to science and nature, Melbourne Museum offers adults and kids alike an array of experiences to explore the various aspects of life.
Over a number of galleries, visitors can walk among the skeletons of prehistoric animals, learn about the origin and evolution of life in Victoria, stroll through a living rainforest, discover the story of the famous racehorse Phar Lap, dive into the world of ancient marine animals, and much more.
There is also the Children's Gallery, a place for babies to 5-year-olds to explore, play, and learn.
The museum also houses the Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre, a space dedicated to celebrating the history, culture, achievements and survival of Victoria's Aboriginal people.
The Melbourne Museum is open daily except Good Friday and Christmas Day.
