The Convent

Described as “the most beautiful art gallery in Australia”,  the Convent is a multi-award winning tourist destination in Daylesford.

The Convent is Daylesford’s most iconic building.  Nestled on the crest of Wombat Hill, over-looking Daylesford, this 19th century old building was a convent and boarding school for almost 90 years. Now, under one magnificently restored roof you will discover a rich and beautiful tapestry of experiences.  Over four levels, there are seven gallery spaces, a museum, chapel, gift shop, café, bar and function rooms, all incorporating art, history and culture.  Surrounded by fragrant and beautifully groomed gardens and panoramic views of Victoria’s picturesque central highlands, a visit to The Convent Daylesford is truly a divine experience.
