Mudgee was first reached by Europeans in 1821, when William Lawson made his way into the region, and was first settled in 1822 by George and Henry Cox. It is the second oldest municipality west of the Blue Mountains.
Early Australian architectural facades and historic buildings line the wide streets of Mudgee, many dating to the 1850s. Described by the National Trust as 'one of the finest groups of townscape in a country area', and referring to the buildings from St. John's Church down to the old police station, Mudgee is still blessed with historic buildings, wide streets and an ambience that is the envy of many of our urban visitors.
Today boutique shopping, cafes and restaurants, markets and a vibrant arts community give the town an edge which both locals and visitors love. The April/May 2009 issue of Australian Traveller magazine voted Mudgee number 30 in the 100 Best Towns in Australia, describing it as "the ultimate Sydney weekender".
