Kronosaurus Korner is in the heart of Richmond, a town of 750 people in a shire of 1200 in Outback Queensland. It is situated on the banks of the Flinders River, the longest river in Queensland. Kronosaurus Korner was established in 1995 and was then known as The Richmond Marine Fossil Museum. It was situated in the old Strand Picture Theatre and was run by a dedicated team of volunteers for many years. In 1999 a grant was received from the State Government and Stage 1 of what we now know as Kronosaurus Korner was opened. A further grant from the Heritage Trails Network in 2001 saw the opening of Stage 2. Kronosaurus Korner is now an award-winning centre and is the major tourist attraction in Richmond. From this website you can explore Kronosaurus Korner and learn about the creatures that lived in the Cretaceous Inland Sea, 100 million years ago. |
