  • The Tasmanian Museum is a great place to visit on a rainy day. It's hosted in Hobart's oldest building, the Commissariat Store from 1808. It features some interesting exhibits on the indigenous people and the convict history of Tasmania. You can also watch a video of the last Thylacinus Cynocephalus, the Tasmanian Tiger, who died in the Hobart Zoo in the 1930s. The Museum is open daily from 10am to 5pm and admission is free.

    I confess: I have NEVER been inside this museum. I always tell myself I will go see the place but something else always take my attention away. The museum was established by The Royal Society of Tasmania. This is the oldest Royal Society outside England and was established by Sir John Franklin, the explorer. If you are ever in Hobart and likes visiting museums and galleries, give this place a whirl. The architecture itself is worth a look. Opening hours (entrance 40 Macquarie Street): 10am-5pm daily except Good Friday, ANZAC Day (25th April) and Christmas Day (25th December) General Admission is FREE. Charges are made for some special exhibitions.

  • We found this a most informative and worthwhile museum. It gave us a better feel of Hobart and especially its history, which we didn't have until we went here. The tour is self guided with printed out information, so you can wander through at your leisure.

  • While you're in Hobart make time for an interesting visit to the Antarctic centre. Displays are well laid out and informative. Kids don't always enjoy it though.
