About this place
What to expect
The Forbes Historic Museum is a great place to explore all things from days of old. Browse the aisles of artefacts and historically important pieces to get a feel for what life has been like over the decades. And centuries... Unearth ancient carved trees by Indigenous Australians found on properties right here in the Lachlan Valley. Learn about the Escort Robbery and Ben Hall's gang, view the many different tools and instruments, and kitchen "appliances" of yesteryear - and try to work out how things were done in the "olden days".
