About SOVEREIGN HILL MUSEUMS ASSOCIATION

Sovereign Hill is one of Victoria’s premier tourist attractions driven by a mission to explore and explain as well as entertain visitors entering the 1850’s outdoor museum.

Visitors will see, hear and feel what it was like to be in the streets, in the mines, on the diggings, browsing shops, factories and the schools to soak in the atmosphere when the discovery of gold changed the world.

Sovereign Hill is a registered charity and not-for-profit living museum evolving to constantly create new features that connect the past to a shared future.  The Sovereign Hill experience is delivered by a staff and volunteer team of almost 350.

Since its beginning in 1970, Sovereign Hill has given people from across Australia and from around the globe, a reason to visit Ballarat adding $260 million to the Victorian economy each year.
