Interested in the history of Daylesford? Daylesford Museum's latest fascinating exhibition, Plotted, is a must-see. It showcases many hand-drawn maps, surveyor plans, and photographs related to civic development, which were created during the early 1860s and remaining half of the 19th century.

Local Government employed engineers and surveyors to define roadways, bridges, drainage, municipal buildings, and more. The exhibition includes early street maps indicating where huts, houses, and mining shafts were located. The plans for timber bridges over the region's waterways are almost works of art.

Daylesford Museum is home to the largest archive of historical artefacts and documents in the Central Highlands. Don't miss this fascinating exhibition.
