Education about defecation – science in all its scatological splendour
The award-winning Pooseum is a quirky science museum, dedicated to the intriguing world of animal droppings. As the only one of its kind in Australia, it offers a truly unique experience. If you’re looking for a fun and educational activity, come and visit us. We promise you’ll learn more about poo than you ever thought possible!
We’re located in the historic village of Richmond in the Coal River Valley, a 25-minute drive from Hobart. Richmond is known for its beautiful Georgian heritage buildings, with many shops, artisan boutiques, galleries, cafés and local attractions to enjoy.
Please be aware that the Pooseum exhibition is designed for an adult audience. Older children with an interest in science, particularly in animal faeces and digestion, are welcome. However, the museum is not suitable for young children.
