Abbey Museum of Art and Archaeology, Historical art museum in Caboolture, Queensland, Australia
The Abbey Museum of Art and Archaeology displays international artifacts spanning 500,000 years of human history, from prehistoric tools to Renaissance paintings.
Founded in 1986, the museum inherited collections from the Abbey Folk Park in New Barnet, Britain's first open-air folk museum established in 1934.
The collection includes ancient Egyptian death masks, medieval manuscripts, Renaissance stained glass, and artifacts from Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome, and the Far East.
The museum organizes guided tours, educational programs, and archaeological activities for children during school holidays throughout the year.
The museum features recreated archaeological dig sites where students learn excavation techniques and discover replicas of historical artifacts.
