The Fort Scratchley Historical Society has a vast collection of artifacts which have been acquired over the years.
The objects illustrate life in the Fort since 1882 but part of the collection also relates to Newcastle local and military history.
This collection is presently being re-documented and refurbished and this will take some time to complete.
Currently, we are planning the best ways to display the artifacts now the fort is reopened.
Because of the huge amount of information available about the history of Fort Scratchley, this page is divided into several secondary pages covering separate stages throughout the Fort's history. We have also included some worthwhile links on our history The Fort has also undergone several name changes during its colourful history.
