Come and visit the heritage hub of the Valley. Explore stories about personalities, places and objects that help tell our history and give fascinating glimpses of our past.

Our heritage embraces Aboriginal and South Sea Islander culture, the rich industrial tapestry of cane, tobacco, timber and even gold, of the region and our natural environment.

The museum boasts truly unique specimens including the Pallimnarchus gracilis fossil and rare cultural objects like the Amalgamated Workers Association Flag and the very first diesel loco to haul cane in the Mackay Region.

The personalities and identities of the Valley are entwined with the rich history that we share. If you are from near or afar, our collections and stories are here for you to explore.
