Gayndah Museum

Gayndah Museum Many are in operating condition and the Gayndah Museum holds regular steam days throughout the year.

The Gayndah Museum is housed in what was the very first brick house built in Gayndah and our displays let you see what family life was like in rural Queensland during the second half of the 19th Century. The Museum also boasts a fine collection of various vintage vehicles, tractors, steam engines and other equipment ranging from rare trucks and tractors through to stationery steam engines from mills and even warships.
