Uncover the raw, rebellious spirit of the Eureka Stockade

Discover the hidden stories of the Eureka Rebellion through the incredible people and objects that lived it.

Step behind the scenes as our Head of Collections and Curatorial unveils the objects that bore silent witness to the Eureka Rebellion. These are more than artefacts; they hold the memories and voices of those who stood, fought, and shaped the course of history.

After the tour, continue the discussion over a complimentary drink - because some stories are too powerful to simply walk away from.

This is a walking tour through our collection stores. Due to the nature of the environment, personal belongings cannot be brought on the tour. Secure storage will be provided for your convenience.
