Lovely, knowledgeable staff who were genuinely keen to explain and show us around, especially Vicky, who was wonderful. We were also warmly welcomed by the staff pet, Brooke the Staffy, which added such a lovely personal touch to the visit. The museum is beautifully presented and brings the history of The Man from the Snowy River to life. It’s not only about Jack Riley, but also thoughtfully showcases the lives of other notable local people, especially those who served in the World Wars. Make sure you check out the video clips on the TV, and don’t miss the back part of the museum, the replica village is a fantastic touch and really shows how people lived in those days. Absolutely worth a visit if you’re in Corryong.

An insight to Corryong and district of yester year. Great range of artefacts and stories to match. Best place to visit in Corryong also the pram on skis is a bit funny.

Was a good museum, but because of the name of the museum I was expecting a lot more on Jack Riley, the legend and Banjo Paterson. It is really a way smaller version of Soveriegn Hill or Coal Creek about the Corryong History. $5 for Adults. Had some great displays.

Exceeded my expectations, very interesting reconstructed heritage buildings outside to wander through filled with old tools and artefacts, and the stories behind them. My daughter was particularly impressed by the old equine equipment and saddle display. Inside great history of the town and some of the characters including the legendary Man from Snowy River. Cheap entry and well worth a visit.
