William Ricketts Sanctuary

Works are continuing to make the Sanctuary safe for Parks Victoria and its contractors to continue the recovery process.Recovery works continue to take place at William Ricketts Sanctuary following the storm, including the removal of large fallen and hazardous trees, perimeter fencing repairs, underground utility service reconnections and other important building, asset and facility works (including repairs to or removal of damaged buildings and associated infrastructure). Recovery works for William Ricketts Sanctuary are funded through insurance.Parks Victoria is continuing to make the site safe to re-open, but it is going to take longer than other sites due to the sheer scale of the damage and the artistic and cultural importance of the sculptures. At this stage, there is no specific date when the Sanctuary will re-open, but it is not expected to be during 2025.We understand it’s disappointing that William Ricketts Sanctuary remains closed, and we are grateful to the local community, our stakeholders and visitors for their patience and continued priority to keep safe by staying outside of these closed areas.Please continue to refer to the Parks Victoria website for up-to-date information relating to closures and change of conditions.Whilst the Sanctuary remains closed, Parks Victoria recommends visitors explore other Dandenong Ranges Garden properties, including the nearby Dandenong Ranges Botanic Garden, Pirianda Garden, Alfred Nicholas Memorial Garden or George Tindale Memorial Garden.
