The Abbey Museum is a priceless collection of antiquities and fine arts from around the world.
The Museum has won international acclaim for the quality of its displays and the scope of its collections, from many different civilisations and cultures. Its European collections of medieval art have a premier place in Australia. You will find the Abbey Museum is divided into two halves. A time-passage explores the exciting history of Western Europe over the last half-million years to modern times.
The past unfolds like a storybook of the centuries-prehistoric hunters, the age of bronze and gold, Rome's iron legions, fierce Saxon and Viking invaders, plague-ridden towns, knights and manors, the clash between church and state, Europe's golden age of exploration and discovery, the Industrial Revolution, distant empires.
