Hellenic Museum Weddings

Ausomome place

This is an amazing world class museum certainly inspires a passion for Hellenic culture from the ancient to the contemporary. There is something for everyone to explore and gain new appreciation for Hellenic culture. Don't miss it

Such a beautiful venue for a wedding! I have attached over 30 pictures for reference.
The parking is at the back:
$30 until 4pm, and only $10 after 4pm :)

The exterior is very well maintained. The wedding that I shot there had a little over 100 guests, and they all fit under cover very happily.
We also had access inside, where there is a museum.
Very nice location, and I'm glad we could be there to shoot :)

Definitely a hidden gem of a museum in the heart of the city. The main exhibition creates a cohesive timeline of Hellenic culture and history, supported by a very informative and well structured audio guide (that the helpful staff member assisted in setting up on my phone). Great way to spend a quiet afternoon relaxing and learning.

What a beautiful museum, tucked away at the top of the city. Super friendly and informative staff made for a great start. A lovely and varied collection of pieces from the early bronze age to the Roman period, different time pieces that were a joy to see. I mean they are from Europe..so to see this in Oz was fantastic and worth a visit before this exhibition ends. 'The' sculpture..is breathtaking and worth seeing. There is an Olympic torch exhibit too which was so interesting. Easy to get to as on tram and train line. Only $12 entry fee - worth it! No food or drinks but cafes nearby.

Fantastic current exhibition showcasing 8000 years of Greek history. Very friendly and helpful staff, and fantastic ancient Greek artefacts. You'd struggle to find such treasures outside of Greece, in many other places. We'll worth the entrance fee. Very central. Highly recommended.

Amazing museum!
Thanks to Evelyn who gave me a lot of insights to the exhibition.

Worth a visit when in Melbourne. It will take around 1.5 hours if you take your time around the many different exhibitions. A great insight provided into the Hellenic world

Found it by accident on the way back from Victoria Markets. Located in the Mint Building in William Street - a fantastic group of visting exhibits from Greek Museums - some artifacts over 5,000 years old. Just beautiful. The staff are friendly and could not have been more helpful. There's a small gift shop with quality items. A must see if you're interested in Greek History. Great value at $12 for adults.

Amazing Hellenic Museum with extraordinary ancient Greek artefacts and Olympic torches throughout all the years from 1935 till today. A must to visit. We attended today being the 25th March Greek Independence Day. A magical experience with lots of Greek festive dances, great food/coffee and lots of entertainment for the kids. Definitely going again...loved it

The Hellenic Museum has an impressive collection of Mycenaean, Crypriot, Archaic, Classical Greek and Byzantine artifacts. Pottery, bronze weapon and armour, statue, icon and painting. It's near the Flagstaff station and tram stop. This museum also has concession price for students and health care card holders.

Great experience, although it's small it's well worth it.

Absolutely mind blowing exhibitions. Ancient Greece to contemporary art is all covered. Very friendly staff. Can't believe I've never visited before.

Great little exhibition but make sure once you go to check whether the virtual reality goggles in level 2 are working. If not then you are missing on a great virtual adventure

A lovely little museum. It is recommended you have at least an hour to walk around, I personally spent around 3 hours here. Lots to read & view. Lovely customer service & the art exhibitions were beautiful

Very nice place, friendly staff, unfortunately not big.

If you like Corinthian helmets, you'll love this museum.

Private fee museum. There is an exhibition of torches from previous Olympic Games. There are not many Greek exhibits. You can visit when passing by.

Had an amazing time exploring this Lovely little museum. The volunteers were kind and helpful and the items on show were interesting and presented wonderfully.

Oneiroi - 15 minutes a day in this room would solve all the world's problems

Fascinating museum and collection

High quality exhibits with large amounts of authentic artefacts, along with original art installations from the local community. Very interesting material, and the receptionist was extremely helpful and enthusiastic. Fully recommended if you have an hour to spare.

A beautiful place to spend an hour or two.

Amazing experience and customer service from Evelyn

Beautiful Museum!!!!!

Attended for a corporate luncheon. Fantastic service and delicious food. I will be back!

Learnt a lot about Greek history

Attended for a corporate luncheon. Fantastic service and delicious food. It was a slice of inner-city tranquility in their beautiful outdoor courtyard. I will be back!

Great museum and really friendly staff!
Enjoyed a very informative tour

Beautiful Hellenic museum, Melbourne Australia

"Occupying the landmark former Royal Mint building, the Hellenic Museum continues to be a prominent cultural destination in Melbourne. Hundreds of objects spanning over 8,000 years of Greek history are on display in the museum's galleries, in addition to numerous contemporary exhibitions"

As a fan of Greek mythology, I love this museum so much.

Gorgeous building full of amazing Hellenistic archaeological peices that is sure to arouse the Indiana Jones in even the darkest of souls!

Awesome venue for a wedding! We didnt go inside the venue but the outdoor area was simple but picturesque with the museum as a backdrop. The staff were incredibly professional and friendly. Definitely recommend.

Friendly staff and great experience

Absolutely amazing museum especially if you're crazy about Greek mythology.

Great experience watching lost without identity at the summer film night.
If possible a better seating options, it was quite difficult to see the screen.

I went on a trip to Melbourne and it was really cool and beautiful. I was surprised by the details of the work and I was also interested in the history.

If you are a greek history fan, this is the place for you!

First time I went and it was beautiful!!!

Excellent!

Great meseum, welcoming staff, must have been taken lots of efforts to be presented this way.

Very interesting museum, not very big, but packed with interesting exhibits, some change, very good value. Housed in an historical building, so the architecture is a delightful plus as well. Well worth the visit.

What a sensational museum! Staff are phenomenally friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. Really enjoyed my time perusing the exhibitions.

Interesting exhibitions

Nice and inexpensive! With seven exhibitions it covers all of Greek history, up to the twentieth century. For those who are passionate about Lord Byron, there is also an exhibition on the upper floor dedicated to him. For European standards poorly supplied, but still appreciable.

Volunteer awards

The Hellenic Museum offers a mesmerizing experience with its dramatic staging that brilliantly showcases mind-blowing ancient artifacts. I was so surprised & impressed by the displays and the lovely staff member at the front desk shared my enthusiasm for the space, which made the visit even more enjoyable . One of many highlights was the Well Behaved Women exhibit, featuring powerful portraits by Loretta Lizzio that depict influential women from ancient Greek history and mythology. This exhibit sheds light on the often-overlooked stories of these remarkable women. I also purchased some beautiful postcards to remember my visit. This museum is a true cultural gem that is worth every moment. Thanks to the Oracle for sage advice too :)

Very interesting

Oh, what a beauty!!!

Judging from outside first, it seems to be unbelievable that such a relatively small museum building is able to house such an extensive collection of ancient to modern tomes' Greek artifacts. And so far away from Mother Greece!

I lost a cup and a small backpack during my visit to the museum in 20.6. Have you found them?

It looks beautiful and wonderful... I want to visit it

Such a beautiful museum. I recommend this place if you're interested in Greek culture.

I've been here many times in the past, I went recently and just fell in love with it all over again. Such a wonderful experience packed with great exhibitions!

The exhibits of the classical era are well described, and the ticket price ($12 for adults, $7 for students) is well worth it. The museum building itself is also very gorgeous (the former Melbourne Mint). If you like Greek culture, don't miss this place!

It would be even better if the Byzantine icons could also be described in detail.

I loved it, especially the Angel, it seemed real

The museum was out of this world, from the featured artists to the historical pieces shown. The museum was very clean and well set out and the staff members were incredibly nice. This was the highlight of my entire Melbourne vacation.

Great Greek museum. Allow 1 to 2 hours.

Nice small greek Museum . Interesting exhibition in different floors.

Very nice
Very spacious
Very clean and with good lighting
It has good access for people who use wheelchairs.

12 dollars a ticket

I think this is a lovely little museum, with fine displays, in a gorgeous historic building. It also has an impressive programme of activities and seems remarkably friendly.

Went to a wedding here. Lovely venue and the food was awesome. Highly recommend for an event.

Beautiful collection of ancient bronzes and sculptures, including history of ancient weapons.

Probably the best museum experience in Melbourne.

With a good 2 hours or more, you will get you to see and learn about Greek mythology and artifacts, current exhibitions.

With a bit of luck youll also have the opportunity of a hands on experience with replicas and a lively conversation with the staff who are extreme friendly, passionate and willing to share. To make sure you dont miss it, Id recommend you check their website or social media.

The gift shop is probably the only one Ive seen where the selection of products a feel genuinely thought out and memorable.

Absolutely fantastic job on all accounts. I will return on my next trip to Melbourne to see new curated collections, more history about Greece and Rome and temporary exhibitions.

You will not be disappointed.

Defiantly one of my favourite museums! Im keen for their next big exhibition!

Attended a wedding function.
Lovely food and a great venue.

Thank you so much Jo and Klesa for making our visit to the Hellenic Museum, yesterday 7/1/2025, a most enjoyable occasion. Your relevant professional knowledge and you assistance and advice in choosing our merchandise, significantly enhanced our overall experience/visit to the Museum.

A great night watching an old Greek movie as an outdoor cinema.

Ive been to The Hellenic Museum several times over the last few months and Im amazed at their exhibition of Ancient Greek weaponry. Truly remarkable pieces.

Lots of art and information.

Cool exhibits and interesting information in a beautiful building. Would recommend if really into the topic- mix of historic + unique additional takes

Small but very interesting. Beautiful building too. Great introduction to Hellenic ancient society, culture and warfare.

It is a great place to look at Greek artefacts and art wholly Hellenic in its purpose. I am thankful it is available for the Greek community but especially for the next generation. Ive been a few times with my children and have also introduced it to my friends.
