Museum sights in Kalgoorlie Boulder

1. A Map

   Western Australian Museum – Kalgoorlie-Boulder

   • Kalgoorlie Boulder, Australia
   • Sights › Museum

   The impressive Ivanhoe-mine head frame marks the entrance to this excellent social-history museum. A lift takes you to the top, where you can peer out over the city and mines. In case you forget the reason all of this exists, an underground vault displays giant nuggets and gold bars. There's also a fantastic collection of trade-union banners and relocated historic buildings, including a miner's cottage and mobile police station (attached to a train). Half-hour guided tours start at 11am.
