One of these is the Mudgee Historical Society Inc. It collects and displays items and documents pertaining to the history and culture of the Mudgee district. The Society promotes its history, and provides a family history research service from its extensive archives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mudgee Historical Society was founded in 1964.  It operated in rooms in part of the former Post Office Hotel on the south-eastern corner of Market and Perry Streets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1966 the former West End Hotel premises in Mudgee West were acquired as the Society\u2019s museum and headquarters. Since then the site has been expanded and additional buildings have been constructed. All buildings have been re-located to the site to house the Society\u2019s extensive collection of Australiana, all locally sourced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Address:<\/strong>  126 Market Street, Mudgee, NSW<br><strong>Phone:<\/strong>    <strong><a href=\"tel:0263727395\">(02) 6372 7395<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mudgee Observatory <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" data-src=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"Attractions in Mudgee NSW - The Observatory\" class=\"wp-image-3277 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW.jpg 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/575;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"Attractions in Mudgee NSW - The Observatory\" class=\"wp-image-3277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/countryairstrips.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/MudgeeObservatoryNSW.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption><em>Attractions in Mudgee NSW &#8211; The Observatory <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The observatories and buildings were all constructed by John who has over 45 years of astronomy experience.
