Maryborough

Few towns in Victoria have a history as tightly bound to the 1850s gold rush as Maryborough. Set beside Bet Bet Creek in the Central Goldfields, the city developed as prospectors and businesses converged on one of colonial Victoria’s defining mining regions. The imposing Maryborough Railway Station, completed in 1890, remains a statement of the confidence gold brought to the district. Heritage streets around the centre retain public buildings, shops and houses from the boom era, while the surrounding goldfields keep the landscape’s mining story close at hand.
