BEECHWORTH HISTORY AND HERITAGE SOCIETY

Beechworth History + Heritage Society and its supporters are passionate about Beechworth's cultural, built and natural heritage. We see heritage tourism as a community mainstay.

 

Described as Australia's best preserved gold town, we're working to build greater recognition of Beechworth's colonial-era gold rush heart, and the contribution to our society, economy and democracy by thousands who sought and found gold here.

​

​

Our society's heritage-passionate supporters include business owners, retailers, professionals, volunteers and history buffs. We gather information on current issues affecting our heritage.

​

and meet regularly to recognise/identify heritage issues, and to formalise and activate strategies relevant to the wellbeing of our town.

 We address these issues with letters, meetings and social media.

​

Our history in Beechworth and Indigo Shire is unique, intact and sits on the world stage for authenticity of a Colonial Gold Rush Town.

​

We as custodians of this valuable heritage must look after it for future generations. Your support for our goals is highly valued and appreciated.
