Museums Victoria / About us (NEW)

As Australia’s largest public museum organisation, Museums Victoria has been creating knowledge, entertaining visitors and building the State Collection since 1854.

Our museums present unique and exceptional experiences for more than 2 million visitors each year, who come from all over Australia and around the world to be inspired and to learn about themselves and the universe we inhabit.

The collection is an invaluable record of Victoria's environmental and cultural history, and our amazing wealth of over 15 million items has been creating a sense of wonder and awe in visitors for generations.

Museums Victoria is committed to creating an accessible, inclusive, and safe environment for everybody, regardless of sexuality, gender, identity, ability, or culture. Discrimination has no place in our museums. A condition of entry is that everyone is treated with dignity and respect.
