The Robert Menzies Institute is a prime ministerial library and museum that commemorates the life and legacy of Australia’s longest-serving Prime Minister, bringing alive the spirit of a great Australian for a new generation.
There could be no better place to house this prestigious Institute than the Old Quad, the historic heart of the University of Melbourne’s main campus, where Sir Robert honed his philosophy of public life as a student more than a century ago.
Forty-nine years after his graduation ceremony, his public life ended at the University where he served as Chancellor from 1967 to 1972.
The University is home to Sir Robert Menzies’ personal book collection, notebooks, and memorabilia.
