Here the story of wool is brought to life - told by those who lived it and through the sights and the sounds of heritage machines weaving carpets and knitting socks. Here the smell of lanolin fills the air, fresh fleece beckons your touch and the authentic surrounds of the shearing shed immerse you in the Australian wool story.
The National Wool Museum experience is more than just wool. Here history, science, fashion, handcraft, and art come together. Here temporary exhibitions and programs combine learning, exploration, and entertainment. Here you can find the finest woolens, learn a traditional craft, explore our region's heritage and maybe even come face-to-face with creatures from our past. Today the National Wool Museum is one of Australia's cultural treasures - as a cultural heritage destination for visitors and the community.
