About

Cootamundra Heritage Centre opened in August 2001 and is housed in the former 1927 built Cootamundra Railway Barracks and Rest House.

The collection relates to Cootamundra and district with the permanent object collection being displayed here. The main collection is enriched by 14 individual rooms dedicated to themes such as the history of the Cootamundra Aboriginal Girls Training Home; Cootamundra at War; the Railway Barracks; Horse and Harness; Home and Hearth and displays about transport history, the RAAF and aviation.

The Cootamundra Heritage Centre is operated by a small committee and team of dedicated volunteers. Drop in and say hello!

Museums & Galleries of NSW helps small-medium museums, galleries and Aboriginal cultural centres create exciting experiences for visitors and, through this, thriving local NSW communities. We don’t run museums, galleries and cultural centres but we care about those who do. We develop their skills, connect them with others in the industry, provide funding, point visitors their way, and give them access to ground-breaking exhibitions.

Museums & Galleries of NSW is supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW.

Museums & Galleries of NSW acknowledges the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation and all the other Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we live and work.
We pay respect to them as First Nations people with continuing connection to land, place, waters and community.

Please note that all M&G NSW staff are working from home. Staff are still contactable via email and mobile.
