Join our tour guides for a special ACT Heritage Festival tour of the Library!

Hear how principal architect Walter Bunning blended modernist and classical architectural styles in the design of the National Library of Australia. Learn how its heritage is being conserved and admire the artworks integral to the design.

The tour will look at Bunning’s principles – environmental impact, functionality and the importance of history – in his design. And how, in line with the Library’s Heritage Strategy and Conservation Management Plan, new technology is utilised and architectural and functional integrity maintained.

Meet in the Conference Room. Please advise of any mobility requirements.

This tour is run in partnership between the National Trust (ACT) the Library as part of the ACT Heritage Festival.
