Visit The Mill
Discover the Story of Australian Wool—Up Close
Just 90 minutes from Melbourne and 20 minutes from Ballarat,
Creswick Woollen Mills invites you to step into one of Victoria’s most charming
regional experiences. Proudly family-owned since 1947, the Mill tells the story
of natural fibres, Australian innovation, and timeless comfort.
While the mill itself is no longer operational, you can
explore its fascinating history through ‘A Very Fine Yarn’, our award-winning
interactive exhibit. You’ll walk through the journey of wool, alpaca, and other
natural fibres—from paddock, to processing, to the beautiful pieces you’ll find
in our store. It’s self-guided, hands-on, and free to explore every day.
Bringing the kids? Make it a full family day out. On
weekends and school holidays, step outside to our Creswick Farmyard to meet our
friendly alpacas and other farm animals.
Your little ones will love getting up close with these
gentle creatures, learning where fleece comes from, and hearing the stories
behind their names and personalities.
Before you leave, take time to browse our Mill Shop, where
you’ll find a unique range of natural fibre clothing, blankets, scarves, and
homewares.
Everything is thoughtfully crafted, beautifully warm, and
designed to last. Whether you’re looking for a special gift or a little luxury
for yourself, you’ll find it here.
Open daily from 10am-5pm
Planning a group visit? We’d love to welcome you. Book ahead
and we’ll arrange a guide to enhance your experience.
