I love this kind of museum filled with exhibits that give a really close look at what was happening in another era. To hear the transcript of the notorious murder must have been interesting. I’ve never before heard about burying “standing up’ to prevent a peaceful afterlife. How interesting. This would be a great tourist attraction, certainly!

I love your travel post – you write in detail and if I was going to go to this town and look for attraction and things to do, post like this is very handy! We often check out some reviews and stuff online. I wish you were in the US (and in my area). Your blog would be so helpful! 😉

I have never learnt about the smaller towns but thank you for sharing its history. But wow, yes it is soooo cold right now!

Hey 🙂 ! I only live less than 50 kms away now!! And when I resided in Sydney, the Canberra >< was well trodden!!! Berrima was a well liked rest stop! I wonder whether stairs down come into your post 😉 !!

I didn’t know you knew the town so well! Yes, it does have some watering holes and my next post is about one of those – stay tuned, Eha!

Thanks for this interesting tour through a historic Australian town Charlie!
I’m not so familiar with your country’s history and learned quite a few things reading your post.
Hope the buildings will be maintained, a great learning place for kids and adults.

Maybe it wasn’t the weather that was causing chills Charlie, but the never-resting spirits of the couple on trial? It looks like a decent tour, but it’s definitely a shame that the goal isn’t included and is being neglected xox
