Welcome to Greenough Museum & Gardens

Must-see history at Greenough Museum & Gardens

Historic homestead

Dating back to 1862 and built by convicts, the museum is the ideal place to explore Greenough’s fascinating history — from Aboriginal times to today. There’s plenty to delight kids and adults alike.

Stunning gardens

Lush and green all year, our historic garden is not just beautiful to look at, it’s productive, too.

Wander around and enjoy the peace and tranquillity — or pick a few vegetables or mulberries!

Incredible collections

From the fates of convicts to the fortunes of entrepreneurs, the museum’s collection has a treasure trove of stories from Greenough’s pioneering past for you to discover.

We acknowledge the traditional owners of what we now know as the district of Greenough; their continuing connection to land, sea and community and pay our respects to elders and their cultures, past, present and emerging.

This museum is managed by volunteers. On days of excessive heat, we are concerned for the health of our volunteers and visitors. Therefore, when temperatures exceed 39C the museum will close.

We thank you for understanding, and look forward to having you visit the museum on a cooler day.

February Closing

Please note that the museum will be closed for February 2025.

If you still want to visit, please make a booking by either phoning the museum office on (08) 9926 1890, or contacting the curator by phone 0448992615 or email curator@greenoughmuseum.org.au

Thank you.
