An amazing opportunity to learn and discover the history of the natural resources found within our  planet, and learn a little about the creatures that once roamed our beautiful earth. A must see place to visit to experience one of the best collections found in Australia.

An incredible place to learn about minerals and fossils for beginners and children. The dinosaur exhibits are excellent. Students are also eligible for a concession ticket.

INCREDIBLE! I could have spent all day there! What an amazing display, so well labelled and beautifully displayed. So many rare and unusual crystals....I was in my element. The fossil collection was educational. Easy to access and a must see, set in an old school building.

Being a very small museum, however, it has a huge amount of minerals and fossils of all kinds. Even skeletons of dinosaurs. A lot of interesting facts and stories. Love this museum

Amazing display of Minerals and Fossils. Great location. Super friendly and attentive staff. Very enjoyable.

Nice small museum with minerals and fossils. It has three full sized casts of dinosaurs including a Trex. Adequate street parking. Admission is reasonable priced. Staff are friendly.

Nice museum. Has many minerals and fossils. I really liked the T-Rex. Recommend.

If you like fossils and rocks you Will love it so much to see
