Mount Misery Gold Mine Museum keeps Nundle's gold story close to the main street. The collection focuses on the 19th-century diggings around Nundle and Hanging Rock, with mining objects and a recreated mine-tunnel experience that gives the history some texture.
It is small, but it matters because without the gold rush Nundle would be just another pretty village in the hills. Visit before driving up to Hanging Rock and the landscape starts to read differently.
