Wyndham and District Historical Museum

We are a volunteer operated Museum with collections relating to the wider Wyndham area, including family genealogy, sheep and dairy farming, dairy factories, horse racing, household items and histories of local clubs and societies.

Our building has been deemed to be a potential earthquake risk and for this reason the Museum is permanently closed, however we are actively fundraising to establish a new Museum in the future.

With the assistance of Project Ark, we are now sharing our collections online, and we would be most happy to hear from anyone who can add further details to our collection information.
