They have a decent amount of artifacts and art installations relating to Greek ancient cultures and history. Got the chance to visit for free during Open House Melbourne, but I was visiting with my toddler so I didn't get to walk slow and read the writings accompanying each artifact, but even with the quick walkthrough, some areas impressed me by immersing me into the experience. Normally $12 entry, kids under 6 free.

The exhibits of the classical era are well described, and the ticket price ($12 for adults, $7 for students) is well worth it. The museum building itself is also very gorgeous (the former Melbourne Mint). If you like Greek culture, don't miss this place! It would be even better if the Byzantine icons could also be described in detail.

The Hellenic Museum offers a mesmerizing experience with its dramatic staging that brilliantly showcases mind-blowing ancient artifacts. I was so surprised & impressed by the displays and the lovely staff member at the front desk shared my enthusiasm for the space, which made the visit even more enjoyable . One of many highlights was the “Well Behaved Women” exhibit, featuring powerful portraits by Loretta Lizzio that depict influential women from ancient Greek history and mythology. This exhibit sheds light on the often-overlooked stories of these remarkable women. I also purchased some beautiful postcards to remember my visit. This museum is a true cultural gem that is worth every moment. Thanks to the Oracle for sage advice too :)

Oh, what a beauty!!! Judging from outside first, it seems to be unbelievable that such a relatively small museum building is able to house such an extensive collection of ancient to modern tomes' Greek artifacts. And so far away from Mother Greece!
