About Noosa Museum
Winner of the ABC Regional Museums Award, 2010
Noosa Museum was founded by the Cooroora Historical Society in 1985 as a means to preserve vanishing remnants of our past, and to make our history accessible by residents and visitors.
The museum officially opened on 27th April 1985 in the building that was previously the Noosa Shire Council Chambers.
