Between 1901 and 1927, the building even served as the National Parliament of Australia. During this time, Melbourne served as the temporary capital of all Australia before moving to the man-made city of Canberra.

The interior of Parliament can only be viewed on a guided tour, which is free of charge.
Tours are held Monday to Friday from 9am to 4pm but only on days when Parliament is not in session.
