Nicholson Museum
This museum houses more than 30,000 ancient artefacts.
Overview
A part of the University of Sydney, The Nicholson Museum is the nation's oldest university museum. It's home to over 30,000 artefacts from Egypt, Greece, Italy and surrounding countries. Founded over one hundred years ago, in 1860, it has been growing ever since. One of its ongoing exhibitions is the reconstructed Pompei built out of Lego — it's one of the largest historical Lego models ever built. And it's only one of the museum's Lego models, it also has a Lego Acropolis and a Lego Colosseum.
