Old Parliament House Canberra

Old Parliament House made headlines for more than sixty years as home to Australia's Federal Parliament from 1927 to 1988. Today, this much-loved heritage building offers tourists a unique glimpse into Australia's fascinating past, a time when this magnificent building was the centre of political controversies and drama.

Old Parliament House is also home to The National Portrait Gallery and it's permanent collection of portraits featuring people who have helped to shape the nation.

With its stunning, simple and functional design, Old Parliament House is an excellent example of 1920s architecture in the national capital. Visitors can spend time enjoying the ambience of the house at the popular Backbenches Cafe, browsing at the Old Parliament House Shop and wandering through the
magnificent rose gardens.
