The Old Treasury Building, an architectural gem in Melbourne, Australia, was constructed between 1858 and 1862. Designed in the neoclassical style by architect J.J. Clark, it originally operated as the treasury for Victoria during the lucrative Gold Rush period. With its grand portico, classical columns, and intricate detailing, the building stands as a testament to Melbourne’s economic boom in the 19th century.

Today, the Old Treasury Building has been repurposed as a museum, offering a captivating glimpse into Victoria’s history, particularly during the Gold Rush era. Visitors can explore the preserved gold vaults and immerse themselves in exhibitions that vividly narrate Melbourne’s past. This historic site remains a vital symbol of the city’s rich heritage and the enduring legacy of the Gold Rush era in Victoria.

This historic landmark provided an authentic backdrop for Miss Fisher’s Mysteries, with scenes set in the 1920s. The grand neoclassical architecture and period-appropriate aesthetics of the building complemented the show’s setting perfectly.
