The City of Banyule is a local government area in Victoria, Australia in the north-eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

[5][6] A brand-new civic centre was constructed, including three-level offices to accommodate 320 council staff, community and function rooms.

[7] The area was originally occupied by the Wurundjeri, Indigenous Australians of the Kulin nation, who spoke variations of the Woiwurrung language group.

Significant buildings listed on the Victorian Heritage Register include: There are a number of housing estates[13][14] designed by leading early 20th Century architects Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin and by property developer Albert Victor (A.V.)

Banyule is the birthplace of the Heidelberg School of Art, which was formed when a group of artists, including Tom Roberts, Arthur Streeton, Frederick McCubbin, Walter Withers, Charles Conder and others moved to a shack on Mount Eagle (now known as Eaglemont) and began painting the landscape in a uniquely Australian way during the late 1880s.
