TOURS OF THE ORIGINAL HOUSEMUSEUM

About

Discover one of Melbourne's most memorable art and architecture experiences.

The original Housemuseum at 219 Cotham Road is the former residence of founding patrons Corbett and Yueji Lyon. It presents a unique combination of family residence and private museum where 'museum' and 'living' are brought together in a single building.

Designed by architect Corbett Lyon, the Housemuseum builds on a lineage of private art collections displayed in residential settings including Sir John Soaneā€™s Museum in London, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, and the Frick Collection in New York.

Explore a permanent exhibition of key works from the Lyon Collection in this extraordinary space where art and life intertwine.

Tickets include a tour of the original Housemuseum and complimentary entry to our current exhibition at the Housemuseum Galleries.

Tours commence at the entrance of the Housemuseum Galleries on 217 Cotham Road.
