Manilla Heritage Museum - worth a visit

27th April 2022

Manilla Heritage Museum in Royce Cottage is located at the Manilla Visitor Information Outlet at 197 Manilla Street. The museum is full of historical memorabilia and archives relating to the history of Manilla. Within the complex is Yarramanbully School, a one teacher school operating from the early 1920’s and a Chinese Memorial Garden, which commemorates the early Chinese market gardeners and shareholders of the district.

The Manilla Rural Museum in Alexander Lane houses an impressive display of farming machinery and implements of days gone by, including a 1917 Jelbart Tractor and a 1914 Mogul Tractor.

The museum is well worth a visit.
