Susannah Place Museum, Historic house museum in The Rocks, Sydney, Australia

Four connected terrace houses at 58-64 Gloucester Street contain preserved interiors, original furnishings, and a reconstructed 1915 corner store.

Built in 1844, these residences housed working-class families continuously until 1990, when the property transformed into a museum under Sydney Living Museums.

Each room reveals the living conditions of Sydney workers through preserved paint layers, wallpapers, floor coverings, and original household items.

The museum operates daily from 14:00 to 17:00, with entry exclusively through guided tours that require advance reservations via phone or email.

The site maintains original brick privies and open laundries, representing some of the earliest remaining washing and sanitary facilities in Sydney.
