Queensland Museum

South Brisbane's state museum spans geological deep time to recent decades, with collections covering palaeontology, biology, and Queensland's cultural history. The Kurilpa building holds the flagship permanent galleries; satellite sites in Ipswich (rail history), Toowoomba (the National Carriage Collection, more than 50 horse-drawn vehicles), and Townsville (Great Barrier Reef and tropical natural history) extend the network across the state.
