Worsley Cottage Museum Complex

Worsley Cottage Museum Complex, established in 1976, is a cherished historical site in Maryborough, Victoria. The 1894 bluestone cottage, built by stonemason Arthur Worsley for his bride Agnes, is beautifully furnished with period pieces and houses a vast collection of goldfields maps, photographs, and mining relics. Adjacent to the cottage stands a slab squatter's hut from around 1844, the district's oldest known building, featuring a shingle roof and rammed earth floor. The resource centre offers extensive research materials, including archived copies of the local newspaper. The complex is open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10 am to 12 pm, and Sundays from 2 pm to 4 pm.
