The Woodworks Museum tells the story of Queensland timber: logging, sawmilling, carpentry and the forest skills that shaped towns like Gympie. Historic machinery, tools and demonstrations connect the region's forests with the houses, railways and mines that depended on timber.
It is a practical, hands-on kind of museum, strongest when demonstrations or volunteers are available. Pair it with Gympie's gold-mining history for a fuller picture of how inland Queensland towns were built.
