The opening of Australia's first national parliament on 9 May 1901 in Melbourne was the culmination of years of work towards Federation. It was the occasion of the year, and the guest list included royalty, high society, and members of the government.

Our recreated spaces look just as they did when they were part of a functioning Parliament House. Anne-Marie, Senior Curator, and Kate, Interpretation and Content Development, talk about how it all comes down to the tiniest details - even things that would’ve been thrown away at the time. For example, steno secretaries used carbon paper to make copies of what they were typing. | Museum of Australian Democracy at Old Parliament House

Our team dish on their favourite architectural features of Old Parliament House! Designed by Australia's first Commonwealth Government architect, John Smith Murdoch, this iconic building was intended as a temporary home for the Australian parliament. Murdoch’s vision was modest but functional, from the stripped classical exterior to the sleek interiors and custom furniture. What’s your favourite architectural feature of the building? #WorldArchitectureDay | Museum of Australian Democracy at Old

What memories have you made at MoAD? We like to think of our museum as a people’s place… and it’s a lot of different places to a lot of different people! From PlayUP craft to school excursions, a place to step back in time, explore big ideas, not to mention the site of plenty of school formals and weddings. Today is #InternationalMuseumDay and we’re reflecting on the stories and events that have shaped who we are, so tell us: what does MoAD mean to you? | Museum of Australian Democracy at Old Pa
