This 160-year-old museum takes its name from Robert O'Hara Burke who, with William Wills, became one of the first European explorers to cross Australia from south to north in 1861. Burke served as superintendent of police in Beechworth from 1856 to 1859. The museum also displays a reconstructed streetscape of Beechworth in the 1880s, a section dedicated to the Chinese population during the gold rush years, and a natural history collection of taxidermy animals, including a rare thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger, extinct since 1936.
