The Castlemaine Diggings National Heritage Park is near the town of Castlemaine, Victoria, Australia.[1][2][3] The park protects a nationally significant historic cultural landscape of heritage value and relics of the Victorian gold rush.

In January 2005 the park was added to the Australian National Heritage List recognizing its outstanding heritage value and importance in the course of Australia’s migration history.[5]
