Step inside the Gunnedah Rural Museum and discover the stories of Australia's pioneering past. Spread across an impressive 14,000 square metres, this remarkable collection houses more than 18,000 artefacts - each with a tale to tell.
Walk among mighty steam engines that once powered the land, and admire the craftsmanship of horse-drawn wagons before motorcars took the reins. Marvel at antique farm machinery, blacksmithing tools, and the humble household items that shaped everyday life. The museum also features a unique McDonagh model railway, a fascinating shearing display, and displays that will spark a smile, like the colourful Coca-Cola collection and an array of classic Arnott's biscuit tins.
Knowledgeable volunteers are always ready to share insights, so take your time and immerse yourself in a world where innovation meets hard work. A small entry fee at the door opens the gateway to local history.
Groups and coach tours are warmly welcomed, with options for light lunches, morning or afternoon teas. Don't leave without visiting the well-stocked gift shop for a piece of local history to take home.
