Members Hour: Rouse Hill Estate
Welcome to Members Hour at Rouse Hill Estate
Rouse Hill Estate, on Dharug Country, was home to six generations of the Rouse and, later, Terry families from its construction in the early 1800s until the late 1990s, when it opened as a museum. Each generation has left its mark, never erasing the evidence of those who lived there before but instead adding to it, forming a richly textured series of interiors and landscapes.
Enjoy a special tour of the completed conservation works on the main house and service wing. You will also learn about the 2024 refurbishment of the visitor centre, which involved updates to physical aspects of the space, such as flooring and lighting, and the revitalisation of the interpretive content.
Then you are invited to discover the rest of the property with self-guided tours. Take the opportunity to meet the farm animals or bring a picnic to enjoy in the garden.
Bookings essential, registrations open soon.
