The idea of a Thames Museum was first thought of, and a steering committee formed, in 1967 when the town was commemorating the centennial of the opening of the goldfields. In the 2020s Thames Museum continues to evolve. They are constantly upgrading their displays and introducing new ones. They would like to expand their premises once again… Time passes rapidly, and they will soon be celebrating the museum’s 50th birthday.
