The Commissariat Store Museum occupies one of Brisbane City’s oldest buildings, originally constructed by convict labour between 1828 and 1829. It served as a vital supply store for the Moreton Bay penal settlement, facilitating the distribution of food, clothing, and tools. Today, the site functions as the headquarters for the Royal Historical Society of Queensland. The three-storey limestone structure houses a diverse collection of artefacts, documents, and photographs that detail the development of the region from its early European arrival through to the modern era.
