The Information Centre was formerly the Commercial Bank of Australia and was located on Collins Street. It is one of the town’s oldest buildings and boasted a manager and assistant in the 1920’s when the railway and Mt. Lindesay Highway were being constructed. Rathdowney’s Information Centre is accredited with QICA and proudly displays the Association’s logo.

The Tramway building was originally sited in what is now the Memorial Grounds. It was moved to its present location and renovated. It now houses a display of Our Pioneering Women, local sawmills, variety of timbers, the Logan and Albert Butter Factory and other memorabilia.

The Old Shop was built just south of the Information Centre and was a general store. In later life it was extended and became a residence. It suffered during several floods when water came about a metre up its walls. It stood vacant for some years when RADHA acquired it and had the extensions removed. It was relocated to the Information precinct by team of draft horses pulling a log slide.

The Prison Hut  was one of the original huts used by prisoners at the then Palen Creek Low Security Farm. The usually held a single bed a small table where the prisoner ate his meals and a chair. They had few personal items. The hut was locked at night.

The Barn  is a relatively new building it houses a collection of larger items including the Barney View Cream Truck,  a bullock wagon that was used for carting logs, a spring cart and a huge table cut from a single length of log.

The Picnic Shelter  is situated in front of the Information Centre. In it can be found a restored German Wagon and a picnic table and stools. The table bears a plaque commemorating Rathdowney’s Centenary in 2010.
