Worker's Museum and Paddy's Gallery at Trades Hall

Victoria’s Trades Hall, rising grandly from the northern edge of the city, is a national treasure and a symbol of the aspirations of the Australian people. For over 150 years the Trades Hall building has given form to dreams of a better life for working people and their families.

The Workers Museum showcases artefacts from working people’s campaigns through history. Paddy's Gallery has artwork from across the movement. Rub shoulders with activists and union delegates in the world's oldest operating workers' hall.
