Did you know the Wallaroo Heritage & Nautical Museum is a member of our family of outlets that stock MBC Foods’ delicious Salt & Pepper Coatings? 🧂🍤
Located in Wallaroo, the National Trust-run museum is housed in a charming 1865 limestone building. It offers extensive displays covering the copper smelting era (1861-1923), postal and telephone history, religious and civic affairs, industry, sport, entertainment, nautical history and local history.
Notable exhibits include “George the Giant Squid,” a 1910 Wallaroo Waterside Workers Federation banner and materials related to Miss Evelyn Marsden, the only surviving female passenger on the Titanic. The museum also boasts a railway memorabilia display and the former 1877 Tipara Reef Lighthouse. Visitors can explore a self-drive heritage trail, trace family ancestry and book ghost walks. Don’t miss the chance to visit next time you’re in the area!
