Great time with Daughter great day out

Temple of Space

Great place to go with the kids and grandkids

john chow

The geology section rocks.

David Palmer

Great area for kids to play and learn

-Rebecca's Crazy journey- REBE CHANNEL (旅するレベッカ)

I was very satisfied with the volume even though it was free. Playground equipment that uses optical illusions. Antique display of cars and bicycles Ores and natural stones Stuffed animals? and much more to see. There are also exhibits on the second floor and outside. Don't forget! If you go around slowly, you will need more than an hour. At the souvenir shop, natural stones were reasonably priced.

Top three places to visit if you're in Launceston. Science, fun, planetarium, history and war, all under one roof. Entry is free except for the planetarium. There is a small cafe and toilets ????, including disabled ♿ toilets. Enough paid ???? is available including disabled ♿ parking and disabled ♿ access to the building. There are very active parking inspector in the area so do not take any risk. There is also a tram ride available on the site.

Tassie Traveller21

Amazing collection. Excellent presentation

Kris

Absolutely a must visit for anyone in the area. The fact that this attraction is free admission alone justifies it. The museum houses a very appealing and attractive modern aesthetic but showcases with heart the history of its trains, art and wildlife exhibits. There is a lovely railway café within that has a comfy, homely touch to its signage and presentation of seating. For a cheap fee, the museum hosts planetarium shows. I took my child here and she absolutely enjoyed the cute kiddie show before the actual planet/stargazing segment afterwards which was expertly and entertainingly delivered by Chris. Before leaving the museum, Minette, the saleslady on duty had a radiant, entertaining personality and was extremely helpful with my purchases whilst also recommending great local events happening in the area. She was also very receptive to feedback and constructive criticism the store needed in regards to more local and museum specific souvenirs. Overall an unforgettable experience highly recommended for all to try.

Thomas Calderbank

Thoroughly enjoyed the Natural History section

janelle currey

Superb place to go and beautifully curated. Highly recommended ☺️

Riley Stewart

A great place to visit with the family that does not cost much, even the parking was cheap ($2 all day). Kids thoroughly enjoyed the hands on displays.

James Foster

Took our granddaughter to see the dinosaur exhibition, she loved it! She thought T-Rex was a bit scary (the sound effects especially!), but she enjoyed the fossil pits (perfect for the younger ones). The main museum hall has a lot of dinosaur displays, as well as many other interesting items. Science zone, Apollo anniversary display, train workshop, planetarium, etc, etc... All interesting and educational. A terrific family venue.

Christian Kerr

Great gallery

A.P.G “CosmicGlitch”

Nothing really special, but there is a small protected pool with crystal clear water safe and ideal for a dip.

David Rose

Amazing museum but need to do some work on their cafe

David Maddison

This complex is a real treasure! Such a quaint but awesome collection on display including Australian ephemera and natural history! The display of dinosaur bones is also impressive for a small city. There is also a great display of local historical artefacts that demonstrate the importance of Tasmania in Australia’s history.

donna ling

Really good

Tanut Choksatchawathi

Anupam Gangopadhyay

Fantastic attraction, really accessible and enjoyable

Brendan Letts

Spewing we only had half hour in there, so much to look at, so well preserved and so interactive. Hands down the best museum I've been to and i had as much fun as my 3 year old daughter. Brendan Ballarat

Pauline Martyn

Very interesting, well looked after, friendly crew. I'll be back.

Francis Martin

Have seen parts of the museum. Very good. More to see. This time for the spider display. Glad I am not scared of them. Unlike a couple of people I know.

Kristopher Nielsen

Took the kids here as there's a hall dedicated to kids learning and fun but more than half the interactive setups were broken. Very disappointing. There's also plenty of regular museum displays and you can easily spend a lot of time exploring but that's boring for young kids.

Awesome & Free

Greg Pike

A small but very well put together museum with local relevant items and the old blacksmith workshop looks like the day they walked out of their last shift. Well worth a look, and it was free.

Sean Oloughlin

I love the Queen Victorian Museum and Art Gallery i always used to go there when i was little withy family and go on that bridge that made it feel like you were swinging but you weren't. I enjoyed all the fun activities i could do in that little area like the rocket and the thong that you would bang on a pipe and it would make different noises. But my favourite thing to look at was all the animals and the different kind of cares and learn about history.

Andrew Methorst

Simple but very interesting museum. Had an exhibition on Marjorie Blackwell an Tas icon. Fascination plus. The old blacksmiths shed was worth the cost as well. And free.

Guy L

Terrific displays that are wide and diverse and show case not just Launceston but whole of Tasmania. Great science section for the kids. Free entry except for the planetarium.

Laura Curran

My 15 year old and 4 year old always enjoy going there.

The Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery (QVMAG) is a museum located in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia. The QVMAG is the largest museum in Australia not located in a capital city. Established in 1891, the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery has a strong reputation for its collection which includes fine exhibitions of colonial art, contemporary craft and design, Tasmanian history and natural sciences, specifically a zoology collection. There is also a special exhibition of a full Chinese temple that was used by 19th-century Chinese tin miners, a working planetarium, and displays related to Launceston's industrial environment and railway workshops. The museum also houses the Victoria Cross awarded to Lewis McGee.

Great place for kids! A morning well spent. Tram museum next door and beautiful walks behind along the river. Lovely staff and cafe is a tram style carriage which is nice.

I always enjoy learning about Australian history. The museum was fascinating with facts about the Tasmanian tiger and footage. I have first fleet ancestry, so I have an interest there. The aboriginal people have been though suffering from the white population.

QVMAG’s extensive fine art and decorative arts collections can be found at a dedicated art gallery at Royal Park on the edge of Launceston’s city centre. QVMAG Art Gallery has an extensive colonial art collection with works by John Glover when he was painting the Deddington district in sthe 1840s, Hugh Ramsay and Tom Roberts. Tasmania’s contemporary artists are also strongly represented with large scale artworks by Bea Maddock and Philip Wolfhagen who are painting the landscape today

Jordan Sotiris

Amazing, very welcoming reception, great for the kids. Convenient to catch the free travel bus. Tram rides on site near by and amazing exhibition with awesome content worth a visit no matter who you are.

Jon Wendes

There is currently a lot of construction out front with no mention of it online. Additionally, the interactive physics/kids area and community museum were closed (the former due to covid precautions) and again, none of this is specified online nor by reception staff when entering the establishment. Electronic information placards have been put out of commission due to covid and not been replaced with even simple paper placards to explain artefacts. It's been over two years of covid-19, plenty of time to adapt. ArtRage would fit much nicer in the gallery, offering space to host more scientiffic exhibits that I know exist and are in need of hosting. All that being said, Estuary: below the surface was gorgeous, and Natural Visions was delightful. Absolutely the kind of exhibits I excpect and love from MI. I chose the museum over the seahorse house for my last day on a nostalgia trip around Launceston and found it anti-climactic. I hope UTAS aren't running another establishment into the ground. Oh, and it was really bizarre and sort of off-putting in the Port Arthur display to have original portraits of male convicts but a "intepretive" portrait photos by students for the women convicts, when I know the same original portraits exist. Could have at the very least had both instead of erasing and caricaturising real women from our history.

What an amazing free museum. There was heaps to see regarding Tassie history and all about Tassie animals and even a lovely art axhibution full of unique pieces. There is a lot to read and learn. The parking nearby is paid, but we parked further down the road for it to be free. “Jonique Life” If you find value in our reviews please consider following our social media outlets on Facebook and Instagram as we highlight magical places you can add to your ever growing bucket list.

Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery is really amazing. It is Free and one can easily spend at-least 2-3 hours. It is located in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia. The QVMAG is the largest museum in Australia not located in a capital city.

Lionel Low

A pretty small museum by international standards. Had a natural section, a rail section and a planetarium, but was missing the cultural or historical section.

Rodney Stevens

Free entry. Lots of science, interesting artifacts and historical accounts.

Jason Tepoorten

Nathan Smith

One of our favourite Tasmanian museum we visit when ever we are in Launceston. We enjoy the difference displays, and is some way, has more to offer than the Hobart one. Our most recent visit, my children enjoy the hands on exhibits, but they are showing their age, and in some ways need to be either expanded or updated. Overall, a great museum to visit when ever you are in Launceston.

James Waldersee

Great place, well worth the visit.

Chris Torres

This's a very good museum. The painstaking work and expertise put into developing their collections is evident and very impressive, the collections are thorough and remarkable. And it has some collections and exhibits that are Tasmania and Launceston-soecific and quite unusual, such as the industrial park out the back. It's a testament to the quality of this museum that you could spend two days here going through the whole museum in detail and you would enjoy it, or at least I would. Launceston can be very proud of this museum.

Kuo Li

Excellent, World War I display is fantastic. Had lunch there, delicious.

The phenomena factory was amazing. We had a great time there.

Caz B

I can't believe we have never visited here before. The most interesting and informative displays, takes in so many outside sheds?? Old workshops. We will go back as covid restrictions had some interactive displays no touching. The planetarium is a must do for any visitor, we watched the race to space story and found it very interesting and the night sky and tour round our stars was excellent. The perception tunnel was also a favorite, even if it made you feel sickly.

Jesse Sheals

Awesome little museum with free entry. Make sure you check out the tassie tiger display! There is a train section thru a door on the other side of the cafe too

Kat Lau

Ken Tran

Awesome place to visit if you have 1-2 hrs to spare. Showcases much of Tasmanian animals and creatures, which is great for toddler learning. What was also cool were the two areas of science related play areas, some indoor and another outdoor. It was definitely a lot of fun and laughter - for kids and adults! I was excited for the planetarium but the video was closed due to their astronomer being retired recently. There is also a Blacksmith area outside which wasn't all that interesting unless you're are into the metalwork machinery.

Vivek P

Great place to take my 4 yr old. Staff are very friendly and helpful. We love it.

Sam Kavanagh

Definitely worth a visit, with lots of interesting Tasmania specific history.

Daniel Henwood

Great for all ages. I especially love the war memorial.

Darrell White

Passable museum in which to spend an hour or two.

Pauline Duhig

Absolutely Fantastic! The interactive displays in the science section are great for all ages. The "normal" museum display is brilliant, as ever, but atm they have a special, lifelike dinosaur feature, which is separate and very informative. We have our grandkids here and it is a hit!!!! To top it all off, there is an excellent little cafe with lots of tables and chairs. This serves good, reasonably priced food and they give very generous servings!!!! A fantastic venue, very cheap - BRILLIANT!

Mitchell Read

Was impressive....well worth the time to visit ....unfortunately we didn't allow enough time as did not realise the museum closed at 4pm. The use of the old railway workshops to house the museum was a fantastic choice and the best possible rebirth for the city's historical buildings....the displays we saw were immaculately and interestingly presented. 5 out of 5 stars!!

Small city museum, but punches way above it’s weight. Beautifully curated, full of interesting artefacts from around Tasmania. Plenty of activities for kids. Great place to stop for an hour or two if you are touring Launceston.

The beginnings of what is now the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery come from collections of the Royal Society of Tasmania and the Launceston Mechanics Institute, founded in 1842. The Museum itself, originally named the Victoria Museum and Art Gallery, was officially opened in 1891 at Royal Park. The project had been many years in the planning and was originally intended to be an exhibition. The State Government advised that it would prefer to fund a museum. The Museum building was designed by a young architect by the name of John Duncan, whose design was chosen as part of a competition. Originally the Museum had a caretaker but no curator. The first curator was Herbert Hedley Scott, who began the role in 1897. Scott quickly built an excellent reputation with his research and curatorship gaining international attention. To avoid confusion with the Victorian State Museums, the Launceston City Council agreed to the amended title of 'Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery.' The early collections focused on mineral specimens and natural sciences on the ground floor of the museum, with art displayed on its upper level. More space was needed, so in 1907 the first extension was built to house a zoological gallery. In 1927 the museum gained a significant additional collection, with the purchase of the John Watt Beattie collection, a treasure trove of early colonial history and art, including an extensive convict-related collection. Scott's successor was his son Eric who was also a well-regarded scientist, and also further developed the Historical displays. In the years following, more extensions were built and the collections and research continued to develop. In 1998, the Museum began the development of a new site at the Launceston railway yards in Inveresk which opened in 2001. Six years later, the decision was made to create a dedicated Art Gallery at the original Royal Park site with the Inveresk site concentrating on Natural Sciences and History. The flagship 'Tasmanian Connections' exhibition opened in 2010, and in 2011 the refurbished Art Gallery finally opened as a space dedicated to Visual Arts and Design.

Amazing museum, with a well balanced display of local history and natural history. The display includes a terrific history of the Launceston railway workshops.

andrew best

Small but well appointed science section which entertained the son for a good while. Also a pretty impressive selection of stuffed animals found in Tasmania all are named and identifiable via the computers; had fun trying to recognise all the ones we had seen.

Gail Cumming

I thought this was an excellent museum . There has been huge efforts to make the museum authentic and yet it is very exciting for anyone xxx

Nicole Sheehan

Excellent museum well worth a visit

Nikhita Sharma

It is a very nice building and the dinosaurs are impressive. The interactive kids section is super fun as well.

Jason Cody

Not bad for a provincial town's museum.

Valentine Parail

The QV Museum has Free Admission, there may be a cost for the planetarium however you can play their games, see the fossils and vintage history for free. Always love going for a free tour and a free jaffa.

Leanne Newson

Fantastic place for children to explore, so much to see and do

Toni Mcphail

It was very comprehensive

Rob DANIEL

Great place to take the kids to learn. Our little ones loved the interactive displays. Going through the tram museum. There were a little disappointed the tram was not running the day they went. But it does give another reason to go back. Seems to have become a regular activity to attend in the school holidays

Philippa Beck

Great interactive area for kids to play and learn!

CAROLYN HAWKINS

Launceston's very own museum of art, culture and science

Kelly Morgan

We're not big museum folk but we really enjoyed this one and wished we had of allowed more than an hour. The display of local wildlife helped us figure out what we had seen and what to keep looking out for. For the price of a donation, we're likely to go back ????

We always enjoy our time at the Museum but it really needs to update some of the exhibits or at least have a bit more of an interaction based part, not just the phenomenon part as a lot of that stuff either doesn't work or it's been there forever

Ran Gefel

You can't really complain much more for something that's 99% free, said I, dusting off the salt on QVMAG's shoulder

Adrianne Purcell

Interesting history and activities, great for families and kids.

Matthew Holden

What an amazing museum!! Can't believe it is FREE? This place has tons to see and do, heaps of history of Tassie's industrial era, animals and a heap of hands on science activities that our kids loved. This has got to be a must see for anyone visiting Launceston.

Lauren Makepeace

Always a great place to visit

Antonette Harris

Went to the museum just a week ago. While it was interesting and informative....what was disappointing was the lack of information and acknowledgement on Tasmanian First Nations People and how they were treated and their demise? Granted, only went to First building....there was more on the USA landing on the moon than Tasmanian history regarding Aboriginals!!!

Joseph Catlow

(Translated) great museum It's a pity that there is construction outside ???? However, the exhibition inside is really good! (Original) 很棒的博物館 很可惜的是外面在施工???? 但,裡面的展覽真的很不錯!

Fran Rose

Aidan S (Aidos40)

Very interesting section dedicated to the history of Tasmanian railways. A good number of original artefacts on display. Free entry too. The hands on science section seemed to be a big hit with the schoolchildren. Unfortunately a number of exhibitions were closed at the time of my visit due to a forthcoming events.

David Stearnes

Great place to learn, to know!

Audrelia Affandi

Jesse Gladman

The museum is an absolutely stunning place, the staff are so friendly and there are plenty of interactive things for the kids. We ate at a delightful cafe inside with very reasonably priced food. The entire museum is meticulously looked after.

Stephen O'Brien

Had great experience lots to take in and veiw, old rail yard l regret not taking a photo of the rails stopping at main entrance

Steve Griffiths

This is a real gem. The science sections is amazing and the other areas are well designed and informative. Loved the dinosaur section and trains. Would love to see more on the Christian history as very few museums have any information or artifacts on the rich religious history of Tassie and Australia.

Karl Borth

Well worth a visit. But the food shop is cool in temperature I guess because its inside but on either side of a thorough fair to the rest of the museum. Had good food n friendly

Melanie Lucas

Great place to take kids. The perspective tunnel was really interesting.

Graham Mckenzie

Pretty good museum. Enjoyed it

Welly C

One of the best small museums I’ve visited.

Anne Clement

Great place to visit. Lots of interesting facts & pictures of the old railway mill, as well as photos & artefacts of historical interest. A great interactive science section ( even for us adults), & dinosaur exhibit & courtyard as well as blacksmith workshop. Definitely recommended. Didn't have time for the planetarium show but would have liked to go.

shane grech

Amazing place to take the kids

Kim S

Great place to visit with two early teens. The dinosaur exhibit was very informative and a great combination of animal and historical items. Sad to read about the fall of the Tassie Tiger. Really liked the train and space exhibit too.

Greg Griffiths

A must to visit! Great photographic exhibition of the hydro power stations - captures the dismal feeling of the environment, having lived there brought back memories as a hrdro village kid. Aboriginal museum was one of the best I've seen yet, curated by indigenous Aboriginals to keep it accurate. Historical. Paintings above, Young Artists of Tasmania and their displays made for a two hour stay....A Chinese Imperial display was quite a different find. Upgraded facilites are fantastic, best toilets in Launceston. Books and literature on offer as well.

Jason Henderson

Great Museum! Very educational & well set out. Has an awesome gift shop too ????

The quality of the displays and exhibits was top-class, beautifully presented and atmospheric, and the information was engaging. There was nothing boring here! Especially loved the children's hands-on areas: we 4 adults tested all the stuff! Totally recommend this as a must-see in Launceston.

Nice walk thru with well maintained lawns and trees. Has small conservatory and interestingly a monkey enclosure.

Kate Perman

Love all the exhibition

Donnacha McGrath

I spent an enjoyable couple of hours perusing the museum and gallery. I particularly enjoyed the exhibit on the Sydney Cove shipwreck. There is an environmental take on exhibits which I found really thought-provoking. I was blown away by the creativity on display in the gallery. Such amazing work. I'll be back!

sapiwat

Equivalent of scienceworks in Melbourne but Tassie version.

Graham Rees

Great centre considering the population of Launceston. Lots of kids stuff to do and good facilities. Don't forget to do the Black Smith exhibit out the back.

Travelling Dad

The Planetarium was our reason to visit and our 2 year old loved the experience of the Cardboard Rocket, the presentation we went to see. We loved the outdoor exploring area and the dinosaurs but were saddened by so many child friendly exhibits being closed during school holidays. COVID has a lot to answer for! I would recommend the QVMAG for a plesant day's outing if you like to wander through and wonder.

Free and some fantastic displays of heritage and science!

Always a pleasure to come to see the interactive kids areas and the changing special exhibits and permanent displays. Staff always friendly, s great place to spend an hour or two, or longer!

Sam Wilson

The planetarium is my favourite part of the museum as it is so educational and the visual effects are amazing! The phenomena factory and sensory courtyard are great fun for those who like interactive displays. The dinosaur fossils, Tasmanian Heritage and animal display was interesting and informative.

Clint Minoughan

Our museum is a great asset to Launceston.

Casey Silva

A great deal of my youth was spent exploring museums and daydreaming about the stories behind the exhibits. The planetarium was my favourite place to expand my child like sense of wonder that lasts to this day. Great venue and friendly staff.

Gerard Board

Very interesting history and interactive learning experience!

Verity Quill

John Leech

Pretty cool and well maintained museum. Lockers for your bags and loads of information about the region. There are tickets that can be bought for certain shows at the planetarium. We just enjoyed the free section which was great as well. Will definitely give the paid sections a visit too.

scott newman

Really enjoyable for all age groups, with lots of interactive services that i everyone else can appreciate

Blake Leguis

Visited by myself one day and took the kids there the next. An impressive little collection and plenty of stuff of interest for children too.

Alison Currie

A great way to spend a couple of hours with the kids - and it’s free! Our son loved the interactive science workshop and looking at all the dinosaur bones - there were plenty of opportunities to touch exhibits too which was an added extra bonus

Jade P

Very fun and educational. Even though the front is under construction, it didn’t affect my 5 year old to enjoy the place immensely, especially the experiment areas where she got to learn and practice basic science. We also watched ‘We are stars’ at the planetorium which inspired her to be an astronomer!

A great museum that you must visit. Local history and art blended seemlessly with more traditional museum content makes for a great experience. Hands on activities for the younger visitors to interact with as well.

Ben Wong

A very interesting place

Norman Strangways

Absolutely loved it! It was not what I expected, and so caught me off guard. Free entry great exhibits for which adults and kids can enjoy and interact with. If you got time to visit only one museum in Launceston, then this should be a top 3 of choices to pick from. You won't be disappointed.

wayne crocker

free admission so why not go

Michael Spence

Unfortunately subjected to special treatment here by an overzealous and affixed security femme. Grandkids were approached more than once and told they needed a parent - I was no more than 2ft away - meanwhile many children ran unsupervised and were not even looked at. Meanwhile we were the center of attention. Wont be returning for more stalking and focus - very unwelcoming. Great displays, but mid-aged female security too unhinged to stay long enough to enjoy. Dont go unless you like stress.

Ross Petterwood

A wonderful little museum

Alexander Parail

It looks great the staff are doing great job

Eric Grant

This is a cleverly curated museum. The exhibits are spaced individually and contain the written and visual information necessary to inform but not overwhelm with superfluous detail. The kids area is fun, learning and entertaining. A great planetarium, exhibits on key Tasmanian flora and fauna done to intrigue rather than gather dust. The Sydney story was fascinating and an excellent example of the quality of its curator(s).

Nina

Very nice place, but weather was terrible when we were there

Heywood, Andrew

Well worth a visit. Thoroughly enjoyed my time. Well done displays, and good coffee!

Mark Baillie

Lots for the kids to do and see...

Min Su Kang

Great exhibits

Rick White (Rickyc12s)

It's free.....it's also really good. Recommend 2 hours maybe 3 but 2 should be more then enough to have a good look at most of the exhibits. Should defiantly check out the planetarium to (it's like $8 or so) run by volunteers who clearly have a keen interest in astronomy and the Carl Zeiss lens projector looks kind of like a naquadah generator from Stargate

Ben Lee

Visited today did the dinosuar exhibit walked around for a couple of hours particularly liked the Tasmanian tiger exhibit and the exhibit on the trains plus the planetarium. Plus went to the cafe and had a cheeseburger was absolutely delicious. Well worth going in and seeing
