Details
The current Tourism Greater Geelong and The Bellarine listing places the National Wool Museum at 26 Moorabool Street and lists daily opening from 10am to 5pm. It describes a restored 1872 bluestone woolstore near the waterfront, with wool, fibre, textiles, science, fashion, handcraft, art and regional industry brought together through two curated galleries and travelling exhibitions. The page also highlights the On the Land permanent story, which connects Wadawurrung Country, farming history, land management and wool-industry innovation. Visitor notes include a museum shop, public toilets, parents room, coach parking, enquiry desk, free Wi-Fi, car, train and Port Phillip Ferries access, plus metered street and waterfront parking nearby. Use it as the strongest central weather-proof museum stop, and check the source before relying on exhibition timing, tickets, holiday closures, parking or group visit arrangements.
