The Museum of Sydney opened in 1995.
"Exhibitions, films and state of the art technology tell stories of colonial life, Aboriginal culture, environment, trade, authority/law and everyday dramas through Sydney 1788 and beyond ."
"The Museum is built on the site of the first Government House (1788) – the home, offices and seat of authority for the first nine Governors of New South Wales.
In 1983, archaeologists unearthed the original footings of the house, which had lain preserved since it was demolished in 1846. These remains are a feature at the Museum of Sydney."
