This is a fantastic Museum, it gives you such an insight to the Creswick area and for such a small Museum it holds a great deal of History about Creswick and the surrounding area, It give you info on the immigrants that came to the area and how they lived, this is great for children also, Very educational

It is worth wandering through the old Town Hall on the main street. It used to be Lindsay Country before Norman moved to the Blue Mountains, so they have a great little group of Lindsey works by most of the artists in that dynasty!also some local works as specific collection. well worth seeing.and if gold mining is your thing..you have to check it out!!

Creswick's museum is in a handsome landmark building (circa 1876) which was the Town Hall. The building's interior is memorable for its winding stone staircase. The museum relies on volunteers' labour and is open only on weekends from 11am to 3.30pm and on some public holidays. When we visited, the two pleasant older women on duty were able to tell us about local matters and answer queries.Norman Lindsay and his siblings were reared in Creswick, and as someone who is somewhat familiar with the Lindsay family members' art and writing, I was most interested in the museum's holdings of Lindsay material. Currently all this material is upstairs and there is no lift and it is not displayed to best advantage; I understand there are plans to transfer it downstairs, so it is more accessible, and to develop a Lindsay Walking Trail around the town. Given the town's people are not all fans of the libertine Lindsays, and the Lindsays' creative output is not held in high esteem in the current arts market, don't hold your breath for the inauguration of a dedicated Lindsay museum in Creswick! Another strength of the existing museum is its collection of artworks by colonial goldfields artists William Tibbits and T. C. Moyle. These works are hung on ground level.Of course there is also mining paraphernalia on display, and through 1915 there will be exhibits to do with Creswick connections to WW1 and other armed conflicts.As it is, the museum is a credit to its stalwarts. However it is old-fashioned and would not be attractive for the average child or adolescent. Given more funding and skilled input and labour it could be excellent.
