Interesting, but frankly, it would be very great to have more historical, museum-suitable, content rather than emotional memorabilia.

A super tiny museum sharing the stories of migration to South Australia from all parts of the world. I was greeted by a very welcoming gentleman and he briefly described the purpose of the museum. It seemed like more content could be created... I would like to draw your attention to the walls right outside the museum as well.... where the wishes of many groups of people who made South Australia home has to share. Many left their home in sorrow to find solace here... I am glad they found their way in a new place and that South Australia welcomes them with open arms. May the chance collaboration of new member contributed to the multi cultural society here.

Great place to visit if you're interested in history. It gives you some great insights into SAs history when it was colonised. It's free but they love and need donations, so I suggest making a $5 pp donation.

It was an amazing experience. I went there awhile ago to see the Arabic Culture special exhibition. The entrance is free. Definitely worth going.

Excellent displays, a bit of an eye opener, especially with regards to the 'white Australia policy'. Interesting to read that non English were considered 'aliens' right up to 1984. So I would have been considered an 'alien' having emigrated …

Visited the migration museum on 27 April 22. Love how the exhibit talks about the history of migration to Australia and to some extent Adelaide. My favorite bit was the recent coverage of migrants experiences from 2000s onwards and how they …

It was very good. The Lego trail was very cool, looking for Lego characters is actually more fun than it sounds. To crack a code by looking for Lego is fun.
