The Hyde Park Barracks Appeal

Designed by New York-based internationally acclaimed museum experience designers, Local Projects, the team responsible for the 9/11 Memorial, the reinterpreted Hyde Park Barracks Museum will tell the emotional stories of connection, place, colonial and Indigenous history in new and different ways, creating an unforgettable visitor experience.

The Hyde Park Barracks Museum renewal will create new educational opportunities, display over 4000 original artefacts (many never seen before), protect our heritage and connect national and international audiences more closely with Australian history. With over 200,000 visitors expected, the museum will become a key player in Sydney’s cultural and social economy.
