What's New at the Olde Gaol Museum in 2012?
Visitors to the Olde Gaol Museum in 2012 will see many of the wonderful artefacts that were on display last year, but there will be many more in addition to the Japanese display. Items have been added to all of the displays in the Victoria Room, expanding upon the Indigenous people, settler home life, school and church displays.
The crime and punishment display is also expanded. The other side of the lower cell area will also be open this year, and will include articles of “technology”, including the telephone switchboard pictured here. There are many items available showing the rise of the modern conveniences we now take for granted.
There will also be a military display reflecting the participation of Victoria County in the World Wars and various armed conflicts.
Prizes in the Victoria County Historical Society Draw include:
