The Abbey Museum of Art and Archaeology is situated in Caboolture, an hour north of Brisbane. It has one of the finest collections of European and Classical artefacts open to the public in Australia. The Museum's collection includes prehistoric artefacts, ceramics, glass, stained glass, metalwork, woodwork, lacquer, sculptures, manuscripts and rare books, Renaissance and Baroque paintings, watercolours, icons and frescos. The collection covers over 500,000 years of world history and endeavours to educate and inspire through its displays and public programs. Museum has won international acclaim for the quality of its displays and programs and hosts a number of award winning public programs and events, it's largest being the Abbey Medieval Festival which draws crowds of almost 30,000 each year.
