Museum

Mary MacKillop Place Museum provides people with an opportunity to learn about the story of both Mary MacKillop and the Congregation she founded with Julian Tenison Woods in the context of the early days of Australia. It is a series of buildings each showing a different period in Mary's life and contained within a peaceful garden setting. Mary MacKillop's home, Alma Cottage, is within the Museum grounds and contains part of our display. Access to the Chapel in which Mary MacKillop's tomb lies is freely available to the public.

Within the grounds there is a comfortable shop in which to relax with friends while you visit and browse among the souvenirs, books and memorabilia related to Mary MacKillop and the Sisters of St Joseph. The Shop also offers a range of fresh coffee, tea, juices, cakes and slices.

Volunteers ensure that all are able to make the most of their visit to the Museum and are there to support pilgrims and visitors alike. Appropriate training is provided for those interested in becoming volunteers.

Museum group guided tours are available if prebooked. Student and Staff Reflection Days can also be arranged through our Education Officer. For more details please click on the links at the top of this page or to book call 02 8912 4878 Monday to Friday during our opening hours.
