Melbourne Museum

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.

Explore the landscape of the Cretaceous in Gandel Gondwana Garden, a living gallery that transports you into the ecosystem of the past then journey through the airlocks back into the museum and meet the 67-million-year-old, Horridus, at Triceratops Fate of the Dinosaurs.

Over a number of galleries, visitors can learn about the origin and evolution of life in Victoria, stroll through a living rainforest, discover the story of the famous racehorse Phar Lap, and more. There is also the Children's Gallery, for babies to 5-year-olds to explore, play, and learn.

The museum also houses the Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre, dedicated to celebrating the history, culture, achievements and survival of Victoria's Aboriginal people.

Open daily except Good Friday and Christmas Day.
