Description

The museum features displays on the district's first settlers, a room reflecting changes in health care over the years, and a room with stories and artefacts from World Wars I and II.

The museum is housed in the former Police Station and Courthouse buildings. The police station and senior police officer’s residence was built in 1858, with the Courthouse, Cells and Stable being completed by 1867. From the courtyard you can access the original jail cells, or just sit and relax for a while. The back yard is a treasure trove of stories and artefacts from the district's rich agricultural, commercial and industrial past, and is well worth viewing.
