Home of The Oaks Historical Society

The Wollondilly Heritage Centre and Museum is open from 10am to 3pm on weekends and public holidays.

The Wollondilly Heritage Centre and Museum is a repository for archives, records and objects relating to the early development of the villages in Wollondilly shire. Exhibitions on display incorporate these objects and include the stories of our early pioneers and how they shaped life in our local area.

Included in the collection are extensive photographic records, family history and local history, specialised collection such as Burragorang, Yerranderie, Coal Mining and indigenous history of the Gundungurra people.

We pay respect to the Elders and Traditional Owners of this land – past, present and future – for they have the wisdom, stories and memories which we all need to know about This Land.

The Collectors Series

Are you a collector? Do you have a collection of something that means a lots to you?
What is a Collector?........A Collector is: someone who collects certain things for a job or as a hobby.

We are running a new small display in the front foyer named: “The Collectors Series” We’d like to hear from you if you have an interesting collection that would suit the Heritage Centres Historical themes. We would like in the future to display a small part of your collection with some information and a spotlight of your journey as the collector!

If you would like to be involved, then please send an email outlining what you collect and a brief description of it with some of the History of the pieces and why you started collecting it..

Email to tohs1988@bigpond.net.au and put in the subject Attention Vicki: The Collectors Series.
