The Australian Museum
 Cnr College and Park Streets

The Australian Museum is Australia's oldest museum: a museum of natural history and anthropology, its collections cover invertebrate and vertebrate zoology, mineralogy and palaeontology, and anthropology.

The Museum's first premises were possibly a room in the Colonial Secretary's Office. It then moved to various temporary locations in government offices around the city. It moved to its present home at College and William streets in 1849, and opened to the public in May 1857.
