Museum of Sydney
-
This stunning museum occupies the site of Sydney’s first Government House, a prefabricated structure that was shipped over with the First Fleet in 1788. That structure was demolished in 1846, but some of its original footings are still visible through glass panels set into the floor. The museum places the history of white settlement against the Aboriginal custodianship of the land. The museum’s plaza features Edge of the Trees (see Edge of the Trees), an installation and soundscape which explores Aboriginal history and culture.
