ABOUT
Immerse yourself in the excitement of Ballarat’s gold rush days at Sovereign Hill! Australia’s foremost outdoor museum, Sovereign Hill re-creates Ballarat’s first ten years after the discovery of gold in 1851 when thousands of international adventurers rushed to the Australian goldfields in search of fortune. At Sovereign Hill, you can see a spectacular $100,000 gold pour, venture underground on a fully-guided gold mine tour, witness rare trades in action or catch a horse-drawn coach and tour the town. By night, experience the spectacular, multi-million dollar sound-and-light show, ‘Blood on the Southern Cross’, the dramatic story of the 1854 Eureka Uprising.
