Gulgong Holtermann Museum, Gulgong

This museum is amazing, the rich history of this town is so well honoured and displayed here. The staff are so friendly and knowledgeable.

Gulgong is a small town worth visiting just for the historic buildings and the gold rush history, but what makes this town stand out amongst other is this modern, well stocked and fascinating museum. This really is a museum put together by professionals with hundreds of high quality pictures and stories from the gold rush era around Gulgong and Sydney. We were only thinking to stay for an hour or so not expecting much but were blown away and ended up staying for many hours including coming back after lunch (included in the price). The attendants on the day were knowledable about the material and presented some stories and background that I wouldn't have been able to easily get otherwise answering a number of questions. I can't recommend this place enough, cheap as chips, and hands down the best regional museum I have visited.
