The Goulburn Historic Waterworks is open for the public to enjoy, each Sunday, Monday & Tuesday. The 1883 Appleby Beam engine and the Hicks Hargreaves corliss valve steam engine become operational at least once a month.
The Waterworks Museum portrays the story of Goulburn's water supply from the first horse and cart bringing barrels of water to town, through the magnificent Appleby Bros. Beam Engine to the massive electric powered pumps of today.
The museum displays, Pumphouse Cafe, heritage and environmental interpretation provide a complete experience. The Waterworks is an ideal rest stop for lunches and picnickers.
