    Think twice before donating anything to them. I asked to borrow an item that my grandfather donated to help educate children. Sent emails, phone calls and visits in person but they refused. What's the point having items of history when the museum refuse to share.

    Incredibly informative with a diverse array of wonderfully kept machines, clothing, photographs and other items from Young's (and Australia's) past. The workers are friendly and had a great "treasure hunt" to keep the kids (aged 4 to 11) entertained and engaged at the museum. Highly recommend!

    Excellent little museum that shows the astonishing history such a small town. So many stories that helped shape who we are as a national were born in this place. You can always learn something new each day and the lambing flat museum will give you more than enough! Drop in for a quick visit, or spend a few hours having lunch in the adjacent park.

    A wonderful time exploring the history of Young and the people who made this place what it is. The displays of clothing and lace work, home and farm equipment and tributes to locals who have excelled was fascinating. Our guide was friendly and very helpful. Loved the demonstration of the precursor to the stick vacuum from the early last century.
