Queensland Museum

Queensland Museum, State museum in South Brisbane, Australia.

The Queensland Museum occupies a building at the Queensland Cultural Centre in South Brisbane, next to the Queensland Art Gallery. Its galleries hold over 15.2 million items, including the Anzac Legacy Gallery with the A7V tank "Mephisto", Dinosaurs Unearthed, Wild State, the Discovery Centre and SparkLab. A tunnel and a pedestrian bridge link it to the Queensland Performing Arts Centre.

The Queensland Philosophical Society founded the museum on 20 January 1862, with Charles Coxen among its principal founders. It opened in the Old Windmill, moved to Parliament House in 1869 and the General Post Office in 1873, then to William Street in 1879. After 86 years at the Exhibition Hall on Gregory Terrace, it moved to the Queensland Cultural Centre at South Bank in 1986.

The museum displays objects and works from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, telling Queensland's different cultural stories. Visitors encounter these perspectives directly through the permanent exhibitions.

The museum sits in the Queensland Cultural Centre at South Bank, next to the Queensland Art Gallery; a tunnel and a pedestrian bridge link it to the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, and three lifts on the bridge reach the Cultural Centre busway station platforms. The Anzac Legacy Gallery, home to the A7V tank "Mephisto", opened on 10 November 2018.

The museum holds an exclusive license to host the World Science Festival in the Asia Pacific region and has presented annual events across multiple venues since 2016. This festival brings science and technology closer to thousands of visitors throughout the region.
