Australian Centre for Gold Rush Collections

The Australian Centre for Gold Rush Collections — successor to Ballarat's Gold Museum — cares for more than 150,000 objects tied to Australia's gold rush story and its legacy, at Sovereign Hill. Rather than static galleries, the centre works through events, lecture series and collections experiences run across the year, with an online database opening up more than 80,000 items to anyone curious. Access to the collection itself is by enquiry.
