Sometime after midnight on the 13th of August the Queenstown Galley Museum has been unlawfully entered, Tasmania Police say.
Offenders have targeted the military room where non-replaceable war memorabilia was stolen.
Items stolen include war medals from both World Wars and other conflicts. Some of these medals were on loan to the museum by families. Other items stolen include military uniform items including bayonets, badges, trench art and flags from two display cases.
The stolen items have more than monetary value and Police are seeking information to locate these items and have them returned.
Police would like to speak to anyone who was in the area of the Museum in the early hours of the 13th of August, in particular around 2am. Any member of the public who may have seen a male person of average height and slim build wearing a hooded top is urged to call.
Any information can be provided anonymously by calling Crime Stoppers.
