Story

A cultural hub supporting arts, film, and visual performance Australia wide, with a Hellenic flavour.

Housed in the historic Former Royal Mint building, the Museum is home to the long-term collection Gods, Myths & Mortals: Greek Treasures Across the Millennia from the iconic Benaki Museum, Athens. The collection provides a snapshot of Greek history, from Classical, to Byzantine, Post-Byzantine, and Neo-Hellenic, winding through 8,000 years of Greek civilisation around the ground floor of the Mint, including the original gold vault.

From October 2015 the Museum is the new home to Sean Godsell's award-winning MPavilion.

The Museum holds events throughout the year, from the popular Summer Cinema program, to theatre, live music, and lectures.

The first floor is currently closed due to infrastructure works, set to reopen mid-2016.

Yes, loved it. Apart from the museum, which is housed in the old Mint, there is a rear outdoor area for small functions with excellent catering. An enclosed area and an outdoor area. I had the privilege of attending a private wedding and then a 50th birthday party. I believe there were 160 guests and there was room for plenty more. Excellent. Highly recommend this place.

Went here Sunday the 1st of April 2018, they were closed with no notice except an a4 piece of paper on the door, very disappointed.

Beautifully curated little museum of Greek antiquities and history, right in the heart of Melbourne. It is a privilege to be able to see these ancient treasures up close without being crammed in with crowds; and there is the incredible bonus of seeing some of Bill Henson's evocative and haunting images in a dedicated exhibition room.

Not a big museum considering Hellenic history. But worth visiting if you're interested

I attended a function and was pleasantly surprised with the gardens and carparking. The great food and the ambience of the overall place.
