Melbourne Club |
The Melbourne Club at 36 Collins Street is Melbourne's oldest gentleman's club.
The Melbourne Club was founded by young squatters (sheep farmers) in 1839 and moved to this London-style clubhouse designed by Leonard Terry in 1858.
The Club at first looked down on the gold generation ('the wealthy unwashed'), but quietly welcomed many of them in later years.
This is the headquarters of the Melbourne Establishment and - according to legend - a powerful backstage influence in national life.
Built in 1858 The Melbourne Club is a very refined renaissance revival building with fine classical features.
