The Grainger Museum, the only autobiographical museum in Australia, was listed in the Register of the National Estate, a register of cultural locations that was discontinued in 2007.
Designed specifically to fulfill the role envisioned by Grainger, it is the only purpose-built autobiographical museum in Australia. The building is included on the Register of the National Estate, the Victorian Heritage Register and with the National Trust of Australia (Victoria). Phasing out began in 2003, when the Australian National Heritage List and the Commonwealth Heritage List were created and by 2007 the Register had been replaced by these and various state and territory heritage registers.
