Cressy Historical Centre



The Cressy Historical Centre is housed in the former Presbyterian Church, an original bluestone building constructed in 1862. It is operated by the Cressy & District History Group Inc., which documents, preserves and shares the history of Cressy and the surrounding district.

  • Local families, businesses, community organisations and sporting groups
  • The devastating 1944 and 1977 bushfires
