Ayers Historic House Museum | Things to Do in Adelaide

One of Australia's greatest examples of Regency architecture is Ayers House. Henry Ayers, who served as South Australia's prime minister for several years, owned the small 1846 residence from 1855 until 1878. It was converted by Ayers into a classy 40-room home with a ballroom and a sizable new dining room. You are welcome to have a guided tour of the mansion, which is now owned by the National Trust of South Australia and is a well-liked event location. During the tour, you'll learn fascinating tidbits about the social history of the period, as well as the life and work of Sir Henry Ayers. The internal walls and ceilings of the interior are renowned for their ornate painted finishes. A fantastic collection of antique furniture, silverware, artwork, and decorative arts from the time period are on display, along with various exhibitions.
