Australian Museum Visitor Map
Discover our indoor map illustrating the locations of permanent exhibitions and galleries, restaurant, kiosk and visitor facilities.
Main entrance: corner of College & William Streets
The Australian Museum's main entrance is located on the corner of College Street and William Street in central Sydney, just across the road from Hyde Park and opposite St Mary’s Cathedral.
There are ramps throughout the museum and two lifts to take you between levels, or take the central staircase to all floors with a stunning view to St Mary's Cathedral. All doors are automatic and the map covers key features such as accessible areas and stairs.
Discover below the location of galleries and visitor facilities, including our restaurant No. 1 William with a magnificent view on level 4, or where to find our new family friendly café, the Billabong Waterhole, next to Prehistoric Playground on level 2.
