History

Prussian explorer Ludwig Leichhardt explored the region in 1845 being the first European to do so. This included climbing to the summit of nearby Campbell Peak and allegedly building a stone cairn there.[17]

The town of Dysart was established in 1973 to support the Saraji coal mine with the Post Office opening on 8 October 1973.[18][19] The name Dysart comes from the name of a pastoral run and a parish in the area; it means a retreat for monks and hence solitude in Irish Gaelic.[2]

Dysart State School opened on 21 May 1973.[20] A secondary department was added in 1979, which operated until Dysart State High School opened on 20 September 1980.[21]

The Dysart Library opened in 1982.[22]

According to the Real Estate Institute of Queensland in 2011, Dysart had a median rent of $1,200 a week for a house, making it the most expensive in Queensland.[23] In 2012, the median house price in the town was $475,000.[24] The closure of the Norwich Park Mine was expected to bring property prices down.[25] In August 2015, the rental price for a three-bedroom home in Dysart started at $130 a week.[26]
