The Rocky Hill War Memorial Museum is located on a spectacular rocky outcrop overlooking the inland City of Goulburn, New South Wales, Australia. The Memorial Museum and Tower is managed by the Goulburn Mulwaree Council, who respectfully acknowledges the First Peoples of the land on which we work. We honour their Ancestors, Elders and Communities. Council also acknowledges and pays respect to Elders and Communities, both past and present, of all First Nations of Australia.

The Memorial Museum is widely celebrated as a moving cultural heritage experience, dedicated to commemorating Goulburn’s and Australia's experiences of war at home, and of the men, women and animals who have served Australia in conflict from the mid-1800s to the present day.

The diverse collection of over 3,500 items includes personal objects, weaponry, textiles, photographs, maps, books, memorabilia, military heraldry, and technology from the Crimean War through to Afghanistan and Iraq . Each object tells a unique story of survival, and records experiences of wars - civilian and military. The Memorial Tower was opened in December 1925 and the Museum being established in 1927.

Our significant and varied collection will be added to this page over time, and will be updated regularly, as we transition to a new public facing collection database.
