Author: Old Treasury Building

On 15 August 2019 the Old Treasury Building marked 25 years as a public museum.
Although it's hard to believe now, there were plans in the 1960s to demolish the iconic heritage building and replace it with a new structure. Saving the Old Treasury Building was one of the early success stories of the National Trust of Victoria.
The museum in the building has been known by various names since 1994 – the Old Treasury Building Museum, the Gold Treasury Museum, the City Museum at Old Treasury and the Old Treasury Building Museum again!
Since 2011 it has presented programs in partnership with Public Record Office Victoria (PROV) including First Peoples and the Gold Rush, A Nation Divided and Wayward Women? currently on display with records from PROV's collection.
Past exhibitions have included Transporting Art, School Days and Sailing into Melbourne, all now available as online galleries.
The Old Treasury Building Museum is now a popular Melbourne venue. Last year 94,000 people visited and many more followed programs via the website and social media. Learn more about Old Treasury Building on the website here.
