Overview
Highlights
Toowoomba’s must-see tourist destination! Part of the Queensland Museum Network and home to the National Carriage Collection, discover a variety of interactive displays, exhibits and heritage trade workshops at Cobb + Co. Immerse yourself in Toowoomba’s natural and cultural history and revisit an Australian transport era. Wander through the charming National Carriage Collection and discover how the 47 horse-drawn vehicles played an important role in Queensland's development.
The kids will love The Coach Stop play area. They can become shop attendants in the old Museum General Store, dress up in old fashion clothes or see the world atop a life-sized replica horse.
Get your hands on history with a variety of heritage workshops (of 1-5 days) tailored for beginners through to practitioners wanting to polish their skills. Learning a traditional skill (like leadlighting, blacksmithing or millinery) and creating something beautiful and functional by hand is immensely satisfying!
Take a break in Cobb’s Coffee Shop and try Toowoomba’s best scones! Located a just short walk across from Toowoomba’s iconic Queens Park.
