Hyde Park Barracks Museum
Macquarie St, (Queens Square), Sydney, AustraliaTel: +61 (0)2 9223 8922 • Web: Visit this site »
An elegant, Georgian building designed by the convict architect, Francis Greenway, Hyde Park Barracks is located in one of Sydney's most historic precincts. Until 1848, it provided accommodation for convicts but has since had many occupants becoming sequentially an Immigration Depot for Irish orphans and unprotected females, an Asylum and law courts. The sensitive interpretation acknowledges these various, historical usages while a new exhibition on convicts has opened recently. The shop and Barracks Cafe complement the visitation experience. Admission is AUD7 for Adults, AUD3 children, concession AUD3 and family AUD17.
