Immigration Museum is a museum that primarily displays Australia's immigration history. It is situated on Flinders Street in Melbourne, Victoria, in the Old Customs House. It is famous for its most important space, the Long Room, a notable piece of Renaissance Revival architecture. The museum was established in 1998 and is an extension of Museums Victoria, which looks over the cultural and scientific collections of the State of Victoria. Its sister museums are Melbourne Museum (including the Royal Exhibition Building) and Science works Museum.
The museum also hosts many traveling exhibitions and provides several educational programs. Located in the elegant Old Customs House, the Immigration Museum reveals real stories of people from all over the world who now call Melbourne their home. The permanent collection is interactive and engaging and special exhibitions add to the museum's appeal.
