Information

The True Blue Visitor Information Centre provides a map of the Croydon Heritage Precinct, which consists of Police Sergeant’s Residence c. 1898, Police Station and Gaol c. 1896, Court House c.1887 and Croydon Town Hall c.1890. The four heritage buildings are open and free for visitors to enjoy.

The heritage-listed Courthouse is the oldest building in Croydon. Enjoy listening to a court case from 1902 which will take you back in time. Last court held was in 1926. Wander through the back rooms and take in the atmosphere of the former Goldfields Administration Office.

Photographic displays and museum artefacts tell the story of Croydon at the Police Station with the Gaol directly behind it. Don’t wake the prisoner!

The Town Hall is a favourite with photographers and stores early film equipment which is still in use. Today the Town Hall is used as a Picture Theatre, Dance Hall and Live Music and Travelling Show venue.
