The Green's Gunyah Museum is situated on the main street of Lockhart. Run by the Lockhart and District Historical Society, the museum operates the local Visitor Information Centre.
There is a wealth of material in the Museum collection, with an extensive range of historical artefacts, photography and machinery on display, all with their own story to tell.
Of note are the artefacts from Brookong Station, the scene of the famous Shearer's Strike in 1888. The Shearer's Strike is a nationally important story illustrating changes in land tenure, land use and the character of rural settlements from the first settlements in the 1840s through to the 20th Century.
The museum is also home to the well-known Doris Golder Gallery, a fabulous collection of 'Wool Art' by local artist Doris Golder. The collection includes portraits of notable Australians, as well as local landscapes and animals.
Pure joy as you wake to the sunrise. Awe as you make it to the snowy peak. A sense of adventure as you motor across red plains. The relief of rejuvenation as you wade into an alpine stream. Connection as you taste native, fragrant leaves. A sense of belonging as you return to your favourite holiday house. Freedom as you dash into the waves. Discover the endless feelings a visit to NSW can inspire.
