The Old Museum in Brisbane is a historic building that has been a part of the city's cultural landscape for over a century. Originally built in 1891, the museum was designed by architect Richard Gailey and served as the home of the Queensland Museum until 1986. Today, the building is a popular venue for concerts, exhibitions, and other cultural events.
The Old Museum is a beautiful example of Victorian architecture, with its red brick facade, ornate detailing, and distinctive tower. The interior of the building is equally impressive, with high ceilings, polished timber floors, and a grand staircase leading up to the second floor. The museum's original exhibition spaces have been preserved, providing visitors with a glimpse into the past and a sense of the building's rich history.
One of the most striking features of the Old Museum is its concert hall, which has a capacity of up to 1,000 people. The hall boasts excellent acoustics and has hosted performances by some of the world's most renowned musicians, including Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave, and Patti Smith. The museum also has a smaller performance space, known as the Studio, which is ideal for more intimate events.
In addition to its cultural offerings, the Old Museum is also home to a number of community groups and organizations. The building's various rooms and spaces are available for hire, making it a popular venue for weddings, conferences, and other special events.
Overall, the Old Museum is a beloved landmark in Brisbane, cherished for its rich history, stunning architecture, and vibrant cultural scene. Whether you're a music lover, history buff, or simply looking for a unique venue for your next event, the Old Museum is definitely worth a visit.
