THE DAVID ROCHE FOUNDATION

The David Roche Foundation was established by the late David Roche in 1999. This house museum is set in the Federation-era Fermoy House, and plays home to one of the greatest collections of European decorative arts in Australia today.

Here, visitors can enjoy antiques, paintings and objects d’art in a variety of styles, materials and colours. An adjoining gallery wing is the perfect backdrop for a sea of regularly changing exhibitions, ensuring you’ll want to visit Fermoy House time and time again.

The David Roche Foundation is located at 241 Melbourne St, North Adelaide in South Australia. rochefoundation.com.au
