National Museum of Australia

The National Museum of Australia is a social history museum that explores the key issues, people, and events that have shaped the nation. It preserves and interprets Australia's social history, with a collection that includes 50,000 years of Indigenous heritage, settlement since 1788, and key events such as Federation and the Sydney 2000 Olympics. The museum has a range of exhibitions, including a play and learn space for children, and offers guided tours. The building's architecture is designed to symbolically bring together the stories of Australians, with a theme of knotted ropes and a non-symmetrical complex that incorporates a variety of references, including Aboriginal Dreamtime stories. The museum is family-friendly, with facilities such as a cafe, shop, and interactive centre
