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.

Reviews
Well worth a visit. It's not expensive. It's interesting. It's a peaceful haven. What does something look like when it's several thousand years old? Go here and find out.
Wonderful, small museum in downtown Melbourne. Inexpensive entry fee and plenty to take in and read and learn. We had only about an hour to spend and could have spent many more. Well laid out and the museum is housed in the old Royal Mint...glorious surrounds. Evelyn at chem is was friendly and knowledgeable. Well worth a visit.
For a place like Australia, this is a good musuem. Not the best place to abosrb ancient Greece nonetheless the place is well managed and deserves the local support.
A hidden gem right in the middle of the city. I was awestruck to see the preserved artefacts, paintings, dresses, jewellery, weapons and shields from as far back as 800BCE. If you are a history lover like me, you can not miss this treasure!!
Last year I had experienced visiting this place.It is an awesome place very knowledgeable.
An interesting place worth about an hour of your time. Most of the bigger statues are replicas but other smaller stuff is authentic.
There is a surprising number of good quality exhibits in this modestly sized museum
