Sydney is a big, global city, home to almost 5 million people from all over the world. The Museum of Sydney tells the story of the city’s development – from flying boats to ferries, and gardens to architecture – and explores why Sydney looks and feels the way it does. See images of Sydney then and now. Learn about important sites, places and people in Sydney’s history.

Watch the city from our elevated lookout, with glimpses of the harbour through the skyscapers that surround our CBD museum.
