The Museum of Brisbane, also known as MoB, is dedicated to telling the stories of Brisbane's history, culture and people. It is a good place to start if you want to understand how the city came to be and what has shaped the lives of the people who live in it.
The setting
The museum is on Level 3 of Brisbane City Hall, at 64 Adelaide Street in the city centre of Brisbane, Queensland. Its home is a historic building, so the visit itself connects you to the place the museum describes. Because it sits in the heart of the city, it is easy to combine with other stops in the centre.
What to expect
The museum focuses on the city's story, drawing on its history, its cultural life and the people who have built and lived in it. Visitors interested in local history, civic life or the everyday experience of a major Australian city will find the subject matter closely tied to Brisbane itself.
