One man's passion has become Bathurst's greatest treasure.
Situated in the heart of Bathurst, the Australian Fossil and Mineral Museum is the home of the internationally renowned Somerville Collection, the lifetime work of Warren Somerville AM.
The collection features some of the finest and rarest specimens of mineral crystals and fossils from around the world. Containing over 5,000 objects the collection is presented together to give a stronger understanding of the development of life on earth. It is housed in the 1876 Public School building which is fitted out with stunningly beautiful exhibitions.
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.
