Migration Museum
Exhibits in the converted 19th-century Destitute Asylum, which also served as a school where Aboriginal children were forced to train as servants to the British, explore the origins, hopes, and fates of some of the millions of immigrants who settled in Australia over the past two centuries. The museum is starkly realistic, and the bleak welcome that awaited many migrants is graphically illustrated, while temporary exhibitions point to a more hopeful future.
